"Plummed Hummingbird"  original painting
Original painted while travelling in Mexico,  Mixed media acrylic, pencil, watercolour, pen and ink on 300lb watercolour paper.

"My paintings emerge from what I’m experiencing.
While in Mexico I research its art history, ever interested in myth, history, culture, tradition, pattern, shape and colour. “Plummed Hummingbird” is a play on the title of DHLawrences book “The Plummed Serpent” (the Quetzalcoatl). Coincidentally I am staying in the very accomodation DH Lawrence wrote this book! While researching the myth of The Quetzalcoatl I painted my version. My painting room outside by the sparkling fountain attracts hummingbirds, in my imaginings I fashioned this tiny creature feather plummed and akin to its mighty protector god The Quetzalcoatl. "
