The “Old World” is starred with thousands of ancient
megaliths erected about four thousand years ago. Among the most
moving are the giant standing stones -- half-buried, half thrust
up against the sky. When observed closely each of these reveals
a numinous character and hints at benevolent mysteries yet unsolved.
All works in this series of monochromatic paintings are a portraits
of specific stones located in the Outer Hebrides Islands off the
northwest coast of Scotland or at Avebury on the North Wessex Downs.
