Swift Greeting Moors (2024) Sarah Macdonald

Description

This painting of a swift, rendered with Sumi ink on clay board, captures the ethereal beauty of nature through dynamic marks and textural interplay. The process—layering, sponging, and scratching the ink—infuses the work with unpredictability and a haunting elegance. A large, detailed swift dominates the foreground, its flight path cutting through the light-toned sky, while two smaller, simplified swifts add depth and movement. Intricate textures of stones and foliage in the foreground contrast with the softer impression of fields and trees in the distance, creating a harmonious balance between precision and abstraction.
