I was astounded by the Botanic Gardens upon my first visit. The scene here doesn’t exist, it was the mark making on the initial canvas that suggested the composition. I wanted to get the feeling of height, with the city situated at the top, and I used steps, archways and pathways to bring us down to a sanctuary of trees and foliage below.
