The landscape features most prominently in the body of my work. It is a landscape of suggestion, rather than a faithful figurative rendering; it is a landscape of fiction and abstraction. Major influences on my work have been the Canadian landscape, the tropical forest of the Congo and the land of the Mediterranean/Middle East. Born in Exeter, Ontario,I studied at the University of Prince Edward Island, McGill University in Montreal and the Université du Québec à Trois Rivières. I always ask one question; when does the unconventional become so utterly conventional as to become uninteresting - dull in fact? I hope these are not dull whatever else they are. Let me know what you think.

Reading is never silent

Sometimes it shouts even if it is in the inner ear.

Drawing Outside the Box

The title reminds us of a metaphor used unceasingly since the 1970s and 1980s by management consultants; used as a metaphor for novel or creative thinking.

L.Mould, (mixed-media, ink on paper 9" x 7") 23 August 2021

Drawing outside the box is just creative.

Reminisce

Reminiscence -- an old tale re-told, or a reconfiguration of an ancient truth?

Quintessence

In the before the "before days", it was the fifth and highest element permeating all nature -- an ancient thought.

Mixed-media (6" x 4") 2020-Apr-4

Now it is the essence of something -- essence of ink, essence of expression, essence. Essence alone and not knowable.

Cypress trees, terraces, and mountains

Once I lived on a mountain where cypress trees grew.

Something new and unknown. Unprecedented.

Fault Lines

Stress, tension, and fear open up fault lines revealing us for what we are, or what we have become, or perhaps, where we are going.

A Constituted Moment?

It's not what it started out to be, it's not what its original shape intended. Cut from its source, it lacks completion.
