Original artwork description:

'Fallen (II)' is the second of a series of 3 paintings based on an image of a large fallen branch (torn from its tree in a recent storm). Whilst this is the literal sense of the title, I also had in mind the sense of to be, or to have, fallen.
The juxtaposition of a long, languid horizontal set against the verticals of the trees was a gift, as was the creeping discolouration of the branch and its foliage beside the saturated greens and deep shadows surrounding it.
