Craig Underhill - A predominant influence in his work is the landscape, but not a static landscape, instead a landscape in time, where things grow, the land moves, geological deposits are built up and most importantly where humankind has intervened and our repetitive, methodic actions have left lasting visual effects on the environment.
Conversely I am also influenced by man-made environments and constructions that have been eroded or transformed through time by the natural forces of sea, wind, rain, frost or sun.
This work is about places and landscapes I has visited or travelled through, but I want to avoid extraneous descriptive detail in my work, instead things are pared down to express the spirit and essence of place and time.
