Artist's notes:
"This painting resulted from reading about Aragorn’s tortuous
journey with Gollum to the Elves,
and wondering what would happen if Gollum tried to sneak away –
surely the ultimate game of hide and seek?
"The idea coincided with a *need* to paint another English
landscape, and this is the result!
"Landscape inspired by the glorious Aira Force in the Lake
District.
Very mixed media: acrylics, acrylic ink, pastel, chalk, pencil,
charcoal, gouache,
and possibly a third of a jaffa cake (I never did find it) on
paper, 21x29cms."
