A snowy owl flew into this painting. It had flown

A snowy owl flew into this painting. It had flown a long way from its northern habitats, so I let it into the forest I was painting at the time. And what I liked about this arrival was the symbolic shape-shifting going on with owls and their mysterious intelligence, real or imagined. Certainly, she, because she felt like a she, brought an eloquence to the piece, I thought. A lot of death and wisdom are wrapped up in this owl, which nudges us in some way, but she signals change, and perhaps that is right on the money, to coin an old phrase, at this point in time. All I know is that when I saw one of her relatives in England, I was a little in awe and that sighting stayed with me. Then, I learnt about psychopomps. Yes, my what a word. Owls are psychopomps in North American traditions, sending the living to an afterlife. And there it is. Taking owls seriously is a fine thing to do. And so, might I add, is being present at my exhibition coming up on 7-10 October at Earlyworks, South Fremantle. #earlyworks #earlyworkstudio #southfremantle #southfremantlecafe #owls #owlsofinstagram #snowyowl #exhibition #psychopomps #artist #freoartist #forestpainting #forestpaintings

Walking into and through the forest or the ocean i

Walking into and through the forest or the ocean is the practice that evolves a rhythm of walking into a rhythm of painting. It is about the play and interplay of merging, feeling colours and form encircling the body as it sways gently in pace, allowing the gentle hum of the walkscape to cradle body movement. Painted and printed works. Thursday 7 October, 6-8pm. Earlywork, South Fremantle, Australia. madelineclare.com #artwork #artworks #walking #artwalking #prints #printsforsale #forestart #oceanwalks #freoartists #fremantleartist #rhythmofwalking #artpractice #artpractices #swaying #colour #vibrancy #cradle #exhibition #octoberexhibition #earlywork #walkingartist #walkingartistsnetwork #walkingtrails #walkinginthewoods

Gushing rivers are where its at. Water that stream

Gushing rivers are where its at. Water that streams through and over us, tucking into crevices and deep subterranean caves. This is an extract within my upcoming exhibition. #exhibition #artsales #subterranean #art #water #waterpaintings #rivers #deeprivers #gushing #tucking #painters #paintersofinstagram #paintinglife

Where are you? The dream state is a beautiful place to be and underestimated in its powerful healing capacity. This piece captures a body of water, a pile of rocks emerging and the magic that exists in subterranean depths. My exhibition. Is in October at Earlyworks, South Fremantle. #body #subterranean #subterraneandepths #exhibition #painting #fremantle #dream #dreaming #pileofrocks #water #fremantleharbour #healing #healingcapacity #earlyworks #magic #existence #art #artist #imagination #artworks

What I see when I walk in wild places is not to se

What I see when I walk in wild places is not to see, but to sense with my moving body. I feel fully a land that is alive and colourful. This piece is an extract from Iceland with its fiery underbelly and illuminated piles of rocks. Exhibition is coming….
