Painted during an abstract painting retreat in Gardenstown on Scotland's Moray Firth.
I had gone to the beach to sit and eat my lunch and I watched a heron stalk for food among the rock pools. After a few minutes it straightened up and swooped past me on its way back up to the cliffs.
When I got back to the studio I painted this abstract in a single session.
That night I took home a biography of the abstract artist Patrick Heron whose work was striking a chord with me.
It was only then that I made a connection with his name and my lunchtime wildlife encounter. It also struck me that my painting had certain heron-like shapes contained in its form. Unofficially I began to call it my 'Two Herons' painting though I leave the analysis of 'what it is' to you the viewer.
Rotate it round, turn it upside down if you want.
High quality prints available via the 'prints' link.

The third of my Gardenstown abstracts. I tried to incorporate the colours in the background and make them part of the foreground shapes rather than have it as a separate backdrop as in the previous canvases.

The Dumfries and Galloway forest in south-west Scotland has just been designated Britain's first dark sky park. I imagine it must be a pretty special place to visit at night time and it got me thinking...
