what is victoria's vision?
I love to tell a story through developing layers of colour, detail and richness through each painting...my focus of interest mainly being people, spirituality, place and identity and looking at the ordinary things of life in a different way.

'God of the Cup and the Planet' - Acrylic/ collage on stretched canvas
Inspired by this poem..
GOD OF THE CUP AND THE PLANET
God of the great and little,
Lord of the universe
And of the steaming kettle
In the kitchen of my house,
Because these are apparent
I believe. I take
In every mornings’ torrent
That washes me awake
With a spooned out tinkle
Communion just as huge
As what the stars sprinkle
In all the nights’ deluge.
God of the Cup and planet,
Lord of the white plate
And the moon with the sun in it,
I drink the wine and eat
The piece of bread I cherish.
Is there another choice?
How can belief perish
If blood and flesh rejoice
To be alive by living
Eternity a while,
To the peal of spoons’ thanksgiving
And the sight of skies so full?
Excerpt from poem by David Rowbotham
