Fitting Out

Fitting Out
Jack D. Pountney

As an image of a boat out of water, at low tide, this is poetic and evocative. As a painting, it is effervescent. The thick, viscous paint, applied with brush and flexible palette knife, explores a range of muddy greens, rusty pink and blue, and grey-green of scudding sky. The combination of a delicate, poetic sensibility and expressionist vigour is remarkable.
