Seeds Are Sown by Peter Cramond

DescriptionSeeds Are Sown 1230 x 910mm oil on canvas. Peter Cramond is a painter and sculptor whose work can be found in private collections all over the world and, increasingly, in public spaces. Peter says of this painting: "It was November 2010 at the Garden and Art Festival and next to the garden where I was exhibiting an old VW Combie Camper pulls up. Out gets a lean young man who unloads an old fashion seed drill. He starts planting sunflower seeds in the tilled paddock next door. It looked wonderful, like I was back in rural Europe. I quickly got out my work book and started to record this moment. Watching this proud and honest man put a smile on my face and gave me such a feeling of hope for the future. It was a visual metaphor for the hope and the beauty to come. This young man had a vision and a goal for his future, his energy affected me, renewing my own motivation and inspiring me. I knew it would be a painting".
