Winning Faint Heart (Treesee - Clowes)
Winning Faint Heart (Treesee - Clowes)
Created from a photograph of a tree marked for felling in Clowes Wood near Whitstable, Kent, UK, I decided to memorialise the tree before it fell. I digitally cut and collage parts of the image to produce these trippy tree rings. There are so many variations from each tree which completely fascinates me. When I alter the colours I always use the natural colour as a base and tweak from there which is why there are certain hues that might only be found at particular times of the year.
The Treesee series highlights my obsession with trees. These phantasmagorical works surprise and delight as I watch them emerge on the screen from simple photographs taken on my phone. Like cloud busting, try tree busting. There's so much to see within the branches of these images I could stare at them for hours. A way to bring an enchanted forest into your home.
