These are gorgeous, I think. They do that most exciting of things, combine a kind of stillness we associate with the idea of landscape, but animate through the brushstrokes and medium. I like how this is not subtle but how it veers towards representation whilst it lets me think about abstraction.
I like very much the specificity of each landscape, too. This makes each canvas feel like a place, a moment, makes me feel as if I am there, looking in, listening to that specific world.
As a small, tiny thing, I love when your signature becomes involved with the landscape too, dialoguing with it, playing with the idea of art/capture/artist/landscape. Though I might be reading too much into that!
