First artworks about Skógafoss Ísland

Cycle touring Ísland was immense, the best cycling experience of my life and I can’t wait to go back. For now It is time to play catch up. I was cycle touring Ísland with my son for 3 months a Skógafoss Íslandnd we cycled the ring road and crossed the centre from East to North and North to South. And of course cycling the ring road it is impossible to miss Skógafoss. But that is just the first waterfall in a series of 30 waterfalls all spectacular. Here are my first small artworks about Skógafoss

The artwork is a response to nature, painted outside and finished in the studio. The painting explores our connection with nature, more than that, it explores landscape and seascape in the broader context of how weather systems develop that the sun drives the climate, It is about interconnection, philosophically it is an attempt to impress upon the viewer that we are not a separate creation from nature. That our consiousness, our self awareness evolved out of the same laws of nature that govern the evolution of the universe. From this philosophical point of view arises the paradigm that consciousness is the universe becoming self aware, holding a metaphorical mirror up to itself and asking the question what am I ….. Then the choice of how we treat nature arises. As we are nature it is in reality about how we treat nature, each other and ourselves. It teachers us about our fundamental responsibility to nature.
