Amanda Bates

The original painting, in acrylic on canvas, borrows part of its title from the hill that looms in the background. Amanda had been looking out for poppies, but they were largely gone; the vivid purple thistles were a pleasing alternative, playing a dramatic counterpart to the ripe yellow wheat and the darkly glowering sky. The granularity and angular marks that derive from using a knife with quick-drying acrylic suit the prickly subject.
