Next four illustrations from Angela Schofield:
illustrator - portfolio - Schofield, Angela - The Creation-This work is in oils on wood block and was one of a series of paintings on the theme of Magicians , Sages and Magic. I reasoned that God must have been something of a magician to have created the world in  seven days..and here He is creating light out of darkness with one sweep of his magician's cape. He is also creating the waters of the earth and all the creatures from the elephant down to the tiny mouse and the bee with it's honeycomb which forms his pocket handkerchief. I wanted an almost volcanic feel to the landscape with clouds of gases swirling around in that first light.
illustrator - portfolio - Schofield, Angela - The Homecoming-This image was originally designed as a Christmas card. I wanted to capture not only the mood of the season, with man and dog returning home to the comfort and security  of the cottage and fireside, but also the mystery of the season  contained within the celtic cross, glowing with light, yet largely unseen by mankind.
illustrator - portfolio - Schofield, Angela - Wise Woman-This work in oils on wood block is one of a series on magicians, sages and magic. I wanted to paint a woman with magical powers and knowledge that goes beyond day to day reality and back in time to the spiritual sphere. She is a witch with her familiars, the owl and the hare. I felt she needed to be a "belle-laide"..ugly but fascinating to look at...a powerful face. I also wanted to create the atmosphere of  approaching dusk on a warm summer evening to lend a sense of mystery to the scene.
illustrator - portfolio - Schofield, Angela - Earth-This work in gouache is one of a series upon the theme of the elements and represents earth. The eye is symbolic of the spirit of the universe, present throughout creation and linked to the image of the " Green Man" ;all seeing; all knowing. In addition to the natural forms which emanate from the eye, man is also present in this work, piping his song in tune with nature.
