我用生活中的回忆和瞬间来做微型画

All my pieces are hand-painted in acrylic on miniature 4"x4" (10x10cm) canvas board. I recreate the simple beauty and nostalgia of moments in everyday life, particularly sunsets or sometimes dreamlike night skies, as well as trips across my local moorland, recreated from photos I have taken over the years. I like being able to find, capture, and create beauty in landscapes that wouldn't stereotypically be considered picturesque: driving along a motorway, the outskirts of a city, the street of a quiet neighborhood, the roof of a carpark, the headlights of traffic... we can find the beauty in anything if we choose to see it.

我所有的作品都是用丙烯酸手工绘制在迷你的4x4 (10x10厘米)帆布板上。我重现了日常生活中简单的美丽和怀旧的时刻，特别是日落或有时梦幻般的夜空，以及通过我多年来拍摄的在我当地的荒野旅行的照片。我喜欢能够在风景中发现、捕捉和创造美，而这些风景通常不会被认为是风景如画的:沿着高速公路行驶，在城市的郊区，在安静社区的街道上行驶，在停车场的屋顶上行驶，在车灯前行驶……只要我们愿意去看，我们就能发现任何事物的美。

I wanted to find a muse that everyone could relate to, as well as a way for me to relive my memories to help with my mental health during lockdown. The pandemic has made many of us realize we took the simplest moments and activities for granted, and those are the exact things I wanted to capture in my paintings.

我想找到一个每个人都能感同身受的缪斯女神，也想找到一种让我重温记忆的方式，帮助我在禁闭期间保持心理健康。大流行让我们很多人意识到，我们把最简单的时刻和活动视为理所当然，而这些正是我想在我的画中捕捉的东西。

I have always been fascinated with miniature things, and the concept of capturing large-scale landscapes in a little snapshot, pocket-size memory, like a photo you’d take and have stored away on your phone—on a canvas—gives them a new lease of life.

我一直对微型的东西着迷，用一张小小的快照捕捉大规模的风景的概念，口袋大小的记忆，就像你拍下来并存储在手机上的照片——在画布上——给了它们新的生命。
