Mud, art and AI

I am pleased some of my mud paintings are being showcased with other artists in the Thistle GOSSIP Collective gallery.
 
I believe art should challenge us to think outside the box and hopefully my paintings will do just that.
 
My mud paintings are inspired by my early childhood growing up on a farm where I lived very close to nature and playing with earth was a natural daily occurrence.
Today I dig earth from our garden and M processes it (he used to be a chemist in another life) with water until it becomes like a thick paste and I use it to create mythological creatures.
 
Through my mud paintings, I hope to connect people to nature and remind them of the beauty of the natural world. To me, a painting is not just a piece of art- it is also tool for communication. It helps us to express our feelings and ideas in subtle ways.
