Journey through a Therapeutic Landscape , 2021/2022
120 x 42 cm (h x w)
Permanent Marker on Fine Art Paper

During the summer of 2021 I walked across the country from John O'Groats to Land's End. Upon completing my journey, I struggled with how to visually express my experience of the walk. Inspired both by the playful and colorful materials employed by Gordon Anderson and the markmaking of Lachlan Carmichael, I decided to return to the tool of my youth. I allowed the felt tip to lead the depiction of some of the landscapes I had walked through, a process which allowed me to rediscover the simple joy of making whilst at the same helping me process the journey I had been on.
