Acrylic and charcoal on plywood panel – 20 x 25 cm.
Oak, beech, birch rowan, larch, sycamore, holly.. These are the trees in the wood. Summer rain, heavy, warm. Bees, sun. A red squirrel scurries down a larch tree. Bracken, cuckoo spit, badger sett.

Salt clouded glasses filter an easterly clyping wind, trembles islands of barely blooming sea pinks. Veinous blue gulleys of clay slip down to the sea. A lapwing tumbles to the ground, spooking a curlew to flight, its long curved beak darning pieces of sky, mending the torn light of Spring. May retreats to the margins. I lean into the wind and find myself at a curious angle.
