Series title Time is a precious resource
Medium: Acrylic and pencil on birch ply panel
Size: 30cm x 30cm
Hours turn to months. Time keeps moving, whether we are watching or not.
These twelve panels follow the quiet passing of time through the place I look at every day - the dam on my property. Artists I admire, like Monet, Cézanne, and Hockney, often returned to the same view to observe subtle change. In a similar way, I revisit this place and take time to notice how it shifts. These paintings aren’t literal views, but reflections of how those changes feel to me: water rising and falling, light moving across the surface, branches marking the seasons like hands on a clock.
The colours shift gradually through each month. Blocks of colour hold the everyday moments we rarely remember, while scratched layers reveal what sits beneath the surface. Gold catches the light at the edges and in the leaves, emphasising the precious and fragile nature of time.
