This painting, Silence Will Touch You, invites the quiet in—allowing breath to reach a place of contemplation. It draws inspiration from the strata-like formations along the West Wales coast at sunset, where crystal layers and rifts of color seem to emanate from the stone in the fading light.
The abstraction is simple yet resonant, offering space for reflection both in the act of making and in the experience of viewing. Built through a process of sculpting and layering oil and wax, the painting mirrors the slow accumulation of sedimentary rock, embodying the beauty of geology as well as the meditative act of creation. Ultimately, it provides a space in which thought itself can breathe.
