SHEEP IN THE FIELD

MID MORNING WITH A BEE

DAWN CHORUS 4.35am

EYES CLOSED. The sound of the land in marks. Sit, listen, respond. Each drawing is a call and response exercise, a moment in time -  instinctual, momentary, fast. The auditory landscape translated into marks, be that bird calls, the wind in the trees or a rustle in the undergrowth. These drawings are an exercise in listening and translation. 360-degree awareness.

Three abstract sketches made up of lines, drawn blindfolded listening to the landscape. Two smaller sketches on the right with looser line work.
