SEASCAPE I / Nordfrieslandmuseum Husum

This is the first work I produced within my ongoing series "SEASCAPES" in 2020.

Portrait staged in front of a seascape without title by Karl Rohwedder-Ruge (1865-1940), dated on the first third of the 20th century. The painting is part of the collection of Nordfriesland Museum. Nissenhaus Husum. The artist is surrounded by single use plastic items typically found in public space.

Excellent visit earlier this week to Torosay Sand Limited's gravel quarry in eastern Mull. Most of the quarry consists of bedded gravel and sand deposited by glacial melt rivers around 16 to 15 thousand years ago when most of Scottish glacier ice melted away. But these are overlain by a couple of meters of grey till produced by local Mull glaciers during the "Loch Lomond Readvance" when ice grew again in western Scotland between about 13000 and 11700 years ago. #Geology #Glaciation #Mull
