'Before I Belong' sits in a landscape that feels both inhabited and not yet fully claimed. Yorkshire hills roll through the background in quiet layers, dotted with the familiar motifs of rural life, while the dark sculptural branches of a Round Leafed Mallee eucalypt possess the foreground, bridging two worlds not yet reconciled. The raindrops fall sparsely through the composition - showing the first stirrings of transition, but not yet in full flow. This is a landscape of arrival, painted from the threshold, looking out from the new world at the receding landscape.

Part of the Threshold Series - a body of work exploring the dual landscapes of the Yorkshire Dales and the Sunshine Coast, and what it means to be shaped by both. Read more about the series in the blog.
