This painting is something that I received in my imagination and searched out reference photos to put it all together. The ravens evoke feelings of cleverness, mischief, ancient power, movement and slyness in me. The cliffs give me a feeling of massiveness, hardness and immovability and also fear (I have height phobia). Its interesting to me, on reflection, that I have created something with such harsh feelings when I am attempting to move outside my comfort zone.
In spite of unseasonable cold, the daffodils have made their appearance everywhere. Beacon Hill Park is in the middle of Victoria and there are cultured areas and natural areas. To drive along our Dallas Road with the ocean on one side, and the hill of daffodils on the other , is a treat. The sun made a break though, just warm enough and long enough to do this painting.
While out doing my steps for the day I was struck by the picture of two enormous ships in dry dock in the middle of the city. They should be in the water, and usually dry docks are in more commercial areas. T o add to the the incongruity of the image was the bright red and blue, brightening up the paled down grey Victoria. After taking a few artistic liberties, now I am very pleased with the finished product. Hope you enjoy it.
