Ystradgynlais Nature Reserve is an oil plein air painting, mostly done on the spot yesterday and completed in the studio today.
My main aim is to respond spontaneously to the subject in front of me, while also trying to simplify everything—avoiding minor details and getting to the core of it.
I like it when I can leave the task of assembling the picture to the observer, so that they can see what they want to see when viewing it from a distance. Nothing is detailed; everything is suggested.
