John Poynton - more of his work.

This charcoal and paint has come light caught on the right hand side in photographed reproduciton, the person who this was purchased from described it as a 'morning scene.' I did promise to put this up earlier and my apologies for the delay, life recently has been a little hectic until I was overcome by the need to bring this picture out.

The great thing about art is that it is to each of us something different, and what the artist or writer has created is an attempt to free the imagination of the viewer or the reader. In this work from John finished in 1995 I see a whole of life scene at least from childhood to middle age. There seems to be a longing there of an earlier innocent time before the child became a woman and her life was crossed over by moon light and love once stark upon the horizon. But whatever it was that John was showing us, it certainly allowed the imagination free reign.
