Panel 5: Earthstain on canvas, with charcoal, paint, and lakeland slate. 60cms x 60cms x 5cms. August 2013

 

Skirting high above Seatoller to the south a stony path drops down through woods towards the river and Longthwaite beyond.

The earth for panel five was collected in the wood; a rich mixture of oaks with some evergreen; the stone scattered on ground heavy with moss, shadow, and lichen.
