“Flowers have always had important things to teach us about time”. -Michael Pollan

"After hiking through the Pyrenees - cold, wet, blustery, muddy - I made my descent into a field that I will never forget...what unfolded was an expanse of golden wheat and swaying poppies as far as the eye could see.  It was timeless, glowing & warm.  This is the scene that I sketched in my notebook and the one that inspired this painting of Spanish poppy fields."

This series represents my lived experience of walking the ancient pilgrimage trails of El Camino de Santiago from France to Spain. While on the Camino, I was able to fill a small sketchbook of impressions and drawings. After returning to home and studio I have enjoyed fleshing out the simple drawings into a series of paintings that encompass the physical and spiritual experience - sharing how it felt to be there.
