100cm x 80cm
Mixed media, including 23 3/4 carat gold leaf
This painting is part of my recent silver birch series, I called it Summer Breeze because of the swallows, as much as I love a cosy evening by the fire, I love summer the most, the light, the warmth and all the symbolism that goes with it, swallows are part of this. Swallows symbolise a number of positive ideas including good luck, adaptability & rebirth. They epitomise a successful voyage and homecoming and in Portuguese folklore they symbolise love, loyalty and fidelity as well as the arrival of good news. I feel these things when the summer approaches and all things come into bloom.
