Saw a young doe last week on the banks of the Dee, she reappeared to me in the form of this smooth found glass fragment on the edge of the Clyde a few days later - #watercolouronglass.
The doe will hide each fawn in a different place. They are camouflaged by spots on their backs. They are always looking, listening and smelling for danger. The background is a detail from a watercolour landscape I saw at the nearby #Hillhouse by Charles Rennie Mackintosh. Later in life he gave up architecture and focused on watercolour painting. He lived and painted at Port Vendres, a fishing village on the vermillion coast in France - a special place for my family and friends.
I gifted this work to Jordi Roca in Girona for his son Queralt to play with and as thanks for his contribution to recycled glass.
Later in September 2019 so many images of deer appeared to me - at the Nous les Arbes at Cartier Foundation and the Pre History show at the Pompidou Centre
