This painting is of the grounds at Rydal Mount and Gardens, the home of William Wordsworth from 1813 to his death in 1850. As artist in residence from September 2019 to September 2020 I followed various themes found in Wordsworth poetry to inspire my work. This painting is under the theme of emotions and feelings.

I want people to enjoy my images and to perhaps re look at their own environment through a more vibrant lens, but then on closer inspection to discover the different materials on the canvas and ask questions as to why I use plastic; why it is there. I want the discovery of plastic on the canvas to be as subtle as it is in the environment – not really understanding its greater impact at first, but when given the time to contemplate its wider effects, to think beyond the surface, beyond the beauty.
