Original artwork description:

This new painting I’m sharing with you is a response to my countryside walking, cycling and memories of fishing by the railway. The painting brings together various colours, marks, views and memorial responses to following along the railway tracks, seeing graffiti and scratched marks on railway bridges and walls, cycling along disused and beside old rail trackways. It maps a journey taken, both real and memorial, with fading images, marks and colours seen and experienced.

The painting is also a homage to hanging about with friends, spending time near the river and railway tracks, travelling in trains, aswell as memories of fishing, maggot bombs, sandwiches, hot summers, swimming in the river and those heady days of childhood.

[This painting is currently at Fine Art & Framing being framed.]
