This work explores similar territory to Shoreline, this time seeking to bring to mind the feel of a deserted beach as a pervasive darkness draws in. The scrim fishing nets are present again, beneath the cliff like shape on the left hand side. Raw pigment was glued to the canvas on the right hand area then manipulated and scraped with a fork and other implements.

Your art is really interesting, it reminds me of some Strindberg and Friedrich’s paintings.
Thank you very much indeed Francisco. I am a devotee of Friedrich’s work, Monk by the sea is one of my favourite paintings. I will find out more about Strindberg too.
Hello! I discovered your blog because you liked one of my posts, thank you! I really like these two pieces! They remind me a bit of some of Gerhard Richter’s paintings, which I love. I think the scraping process is what gives it this similarity. I really enjoy it. You make great work.
Thank you very much Annaanarchist! That’s an amazing compliment that these remind you of Richter, I’m consistently in awe of his work. Best, John
