The pastel is first crumbled onto the paper in small amounts, then smoothed across the surface by hand. The mountain areas are made using a dip pen with fine nib, or mechanical pencil.
Azomai is a Greek verb meaning 'to stand in awe, or in fear'. This work explores the experience of the sublime landscape, where mountains and other dramatic forms evoke a sense of wonder, reverence, and being moved beyond oneself.
This piece is sold unframed and will need to be framed with a mount, behind glass (non-reflective recommended) in order to be displayed.
If you have any questions about the work or framing, you are welcome to get in touch.
About the Artist
Working in mixed-media drawing and painting, my work explores landscape as a language of reverence, imagination, and the numinous, with a particular focus on mountain forms.
I am an elected Professional Member of the Scottish Society of Artists (SSA), and have exhibited widely across the UK, including the Royal Scottish Academy Annual, Royal West of England Academy Annual, Visual Arts Scotland, Scottish Society of Artists exhibitions, and other group and solo shows.
