BLUEBERRY MOON. details. 122x38cm. beach materials with acrylic on unstretched canvas. September 16th 2016. Moon illusion made it seem very large..(in reality it was a little larger than most) and it's gentle translucent pinkness (due to the fact it was close to the horizon) was lovely indeed.
I was picking blueberries in our garden at the time I was working at West Bexington near Abbotsbury. A soft pink moon rose just to the right of Portland. To the left of the moonless fragment the outside light of a solitary house turned on and the darkness declared itself inhabited.
