These 9 images form part of a 140 image colour chart collected in Cardigan and Cilgerran over a series of walks between 2015- 2020 and featured in my January 2020 residency on Instagram for @landartcollective

PLEIN AIR
A painterly tone inspired by  the Thomas Jones painting, wall in Naples, 1782

FIELDFARE  
White with umber undertones referencing the brown and white speckles of 
the migratory Fieldfare bird

HASTI HOLM  
The Norse name for the island at the mouth of the Teifi Estuary, thought to 
mean Isle of Horses and a safe haven

MUNICIPAL 
Inspired by municipal planting this is a loud red which makes it's presence felt

VERDISGREEN
This shade takes its name from the natural patina formed on copper, brass or bronze 
by atmospheric oxidisation

GLAW HALLT 
Welsh meaning Salt rain, references the briny Teifi estuary as described in the poem
 Y Cei by Ceri Wyn Jones


LLOCHES
This rich emerald green surface will provide shelter or shade. 



RESTORATION RED
 This warm historical tone pays homage to Cardigan's rich and fugitive architectural history
