Around thirty years ago I was lucky enough to spend a month in Bali, Indonesia. During our stay, my partner and I were invited to attend a funeral! It might not be everyone's idea of a holiday activity of course but we jumped at the chance. Balinese funeral ceremonies are huge festivals involving the whole village and, following the cremation, conclude with a huge feast. The event was loud, chaotic and fascinating to watch. A senior person in the village had died and at the same time as he was being cremated some of the poorer village dead were also included. One of them had died some time ago and been buried awaiting the chance to be cremated when funds became available.
This was a huge celebration, with a lot of religious significance of course, but the fact that the whole village was involved made it something special for us as foreigners to take part in.
This is a photo art image based on a photograph I took at the time. A procession of people, many carrying food in baskets on their heads, heading along a trail towards the communal eating area.
Born in the South of England I now live half way up a mountain in Umbria, Italy. I work from my art studio looking out over fabulous views of the Italian countryside. I am so happy to share my artwork with you.
An artist and writer, I specialize in photo art and acrylic painting. For my photo art, I start with my own photographs and work on them digitally to capture the feeling I want to convey with the final image. For my abstract work, I literally 'go with the flow' and follow where my heart wants to take me as I work.
I create art to make your heart smile, capturing the spirit of place in towns and villages, or creating art to enhance the energy of your home or workplace. Take your time to look through my portfolio, I hope you enjoy it.
