Colin Slater
Artist Biography
Statement    
                 
   


"The subject of my work is the experience of being beneath an open sky, of walking the landscape and responding to its everchanging moods, scents, sounds, temperature and colour. However I work a triangular format, each causing a chain reaction with the other two; I work directly from the landscape, develop imagery associated with travel and make personal translations of workings from paintings of the Masters.’

I am directly influenced by the great tradition of Dutch and English landscape painting, in particular the work of Ruisdael and Turner".
