Harvest Along the Matamuhuri
Artist’s Note
I painted this work while travelling beside the Matamuhuri River.
What stayed with me was not only the beauty of the landscape but the quiet rhythm of everyday rural life. The small boat, the people by the water, the rice fields, and the distant hills all seemed connected through the slow movement of the river.
When painting outdoors, I try to preserve the atmosphere of a place before the light changes. This work became less about describing the landscape and more about remembering the peaceful relationship between people and the environment that supports them.
Series Note
Landscapes of Presence
This series consists of watercolours painted directly from observation in nature. Created outdoors, the works preserve the changing conditions of light, weather, and atmosphere while responding intuitively to the landscape before the artist.
Rather than reconstructing remembered places, these paintings celebrate direct encounters with rivers, hills, forests, and rural communities, revealing the living relationship between people and the natural environment.
