Life is a Journey
Life is a journey made up of stages
And I am on the path carried along
By canoe ship bird forest
Gently rocking calling to me
With my family at my side.
From city to mountain
Through river and sea
There is always an opening
Tunnel window door
Sun moon cloud sky
Leading guiding protecting giving life.
This body of work from 2010-11 represents the latter stages of life – from work, through retirement, to old age, death and beyond. The palette is soft, the strokes are gentle. Life is good.
The titles are taken from or inspired by W.H. Auden’s poems.
