About the Item
"Dormant Sap" portrays the essence of winter's embrace, where the tree's bare branches stand as silent sentinels against the pale backdrop of a frost-kissed landscape. Executed with a delicate touch in watercolor and Chinese ink on handmade watercolor paper, this piece captures the quiet beauty of dormancy.
In this composition, the artist skillfully juxtaposes the intricate network of branches against the soft suggestion of foliage at the foreground. The absence of leaves accentuates the stark beauty of the tree's form, while the subtle interplay of light and shadow adds depth and dimension to the scene.
Through the masterful use of watercolor, the artist evokes the crispness of winter air and the hushed stillness of a sleeping forest. Each brushstroke whispers of anticipation, as if the tree itself is poised on the cusp of awakening. The application of Chinese ink brings a sense of fluidity and movement, as if the branches dance gracefully against the wintry sky.
"Dormant Sap" invites the viewer to embrace the quietude of winter and the promise of renewal that lies dormant within. It serves as a poignant reminder of the cyclical nature of life, where even in the depths of dormancy, there exists the potential for growth and transformation.

"To poetize the world by seeking the essence of beings". A trained actress, Linda Clerget extends her artistic field from theater to the visual arts through the practice of photography and painting. The artist seeks to create a poetry of links between humans and nature, dreams and reality, the human species and spirituality. His works, which navigate between figuration and abstraction, are imbued with vitality and raw beauty; vitality of the touch, of the color, of the dusting of the material... She builds a poetic and intuitive visual universe, which speaks to our sensations and our emotions before our intellect. The spectator is thus projected into "little paradises", waking dreams where time slows down.

- Llangorse Lake, Brecon Beacons, Wales, circa 1964. Welsh Landscape. Abstract.By Roger CecilLocated in Sutton Poyntz, DorsetRoger Cecil. Welsh ( b.1942 - d.2015 ). Llangorse, Brecon Beacons Watercolor and pastel on paper. Signed. Image size 19.5 inches x 29.5 inches ( 49.5cm x 75cm ). Frame size 24.6 inches x 34.6 inches ( 62.5cm x 88cm ). Available for sale; this original painting is by the Welsh artist Roger Cecil and dates from around 1964. The watercolor and pastel work is presented and supplied in a sympathetic contemporary frame (our stock frame, which is shown in these photographs), mounted using conservation materials and behind glass. The original backboard has been reused but the artwork has been isolated from it using conservation barrier materials. This vintage artwork is in good condition, commensurate with its age. Previous cockling (rippling) of the paper has been eliminated by stretching and the use of a new mounting. Previous foxing and age marks have been mechanically removed and the coarse fiber of the paper has been made good in these areas. The painting is now ready to hang and display. The watercolor is signed lower left. Provenance: Previously with the Howard Roberts Gallery, Imperial Buildings, 69/74 St Mary Street, Cardiff. Roger Cecil was a reclusive painter, draughtsman and teacher who was born in Abertillery, Monmouthshire in 1942. He lived and worked in Wales for the last four decades of his life, much of it in the house where he was born and brought up. Cecil produced abstract work rich in imagery, poetry and color, which were drawn from his environment, the industrial valley towns and mountains. Prolific and obsessive, he was always a solitary artist, with no affiliations to any group or artistic movement. He worked for more than forty years, with an ever evolving and prolific creative output. His pictures capture the geology and the history of the places he knew so intimately, and the impact of man of that environment. Cecil studied Fine Art at Newport College of Art from 1959 to 1963, where his teachers included John Wright and Thomas Rathmell; in 1963 he gained the College’s highest award in the national diploma in design and a place at the Royal College London. In 1964 he won the David Murray Landscape Award from the RA. He took up his place at the Royal College of Art, but after just a few weeks he was unsatisfied and instead took up manual work in opencast mines and building sites. Cecil later spent some time teaching at Ebbw Vale. From 1995 to 1998 he did his MA, which he gained with distinction in communication design at St. Martin’s College of Art. The BBC made a television documentary on Cecil's work called The Gentle Rebel. For a long time Cecil did not exhibit, through choice, and it was friends who helped to promote him. He then had a series of exhibitions at Business Art Galleries from 1987, and in 1995 the Hill Court Gallery, Abergavenny, held a retrospective of his work. In 1998 Gordon Hepworth and Y Tabernacl both showed Cecil's pictures. Cecil’s works were also shown at the Oriel Myrddin Gallery in 2006 and 20011. The small book which takes the name of the earlier exhibition ”Cariad”; has an introduction by gallery manager Meg Anthony which states; “The magic of Roger Cecil’s work is in part down to the man, for he is enigmatic and surprising, diffident and proud. He has deliberately avoided the art establishment, remaining shy of its protocol and systems of exposure and recognition. He has consciously created the space to pursue his art, away from the pressures of publicity and celebrity...... paint is Roger’s passion.” Cecil’s methods were complex; he worked with a mixture of materials, including oil pastels, sandpaper, primer and plaster. He built up layers and then he rubbed and scratched them away. His work is textured and nuanced, and the color reverberates as if it has a life of its own. The paintings are abstract, but there are echoes of monumental shapes and undulations of the female form, the Valleys - the dark hills embracing the bowls of space and the rich, gritty textures of the industrial and post-industrial landscape, highlighted by intricate, personal marks. Sarah Bradford states: “Scale is an important feature of Roger Cecil’s work; he constantly shifts from near and the far off. He also moves his viewpoint from looking at, to looking down on to. This looking down, as though a bird, onto the world of the painting, comes from exploration of his surroundings and from the ordinance survey maps he takes with him when he walks. He has often said how he is inspired by the language of symbols and lines that are used in maps to delineate the landscape. It is easy to see the connection when looking at the networks of invented footpaths, waterways, and other pinpoint features that can be found in his work.” … Mary Lloyd...Category
