Winter and Nature

Here is a very short film using footage from Wakehurst Place earlier this month. Wakehurst is a truly breathtaking wild botanic garden in West Sussex and a place that I visit often as it is a true inspiration and a place where I feel at ease and settled. Each season offers something different and on this day there was an absolute beauty in the still and quiet of a very cold winter's day. 

Although my fine art is abstract, I feel that nature is a huge influence on me and guides my decision making when creating my work. I am very lucky where I live that I have both the sea and open countryside close by. 

I hope this will be the first of many short experimental films that I make as for a long time I have not documented my inspirations but feel the importance of using the films and photos I collect to create something new instead of just forgetting about them.
