Soul of Summer is a large semi abstract oil painting of a white deer stag in a summer meadow full of wildflowers. The stag is slightly transparent as if he is just materialising. In front of him are vibrantly coloured wild flowers seen against a row of green trees. Towards the back of the field is the suggestion of another field beyond which is in full sunlight. I like the idea that certain places can have spirits protecting them and as I walk about in England I often feel the atmospheres of different places and it intrigues me.
