The batiks in this series took root in natural cevenole settings, with quiet observation.  The places are not grand-scale landscapes, rather they are human-scale places under trees, or carved out by rock walls.  For me, that is the essence of the Cevennes.  The landscape feels intimate and familiar because it incarnates a gentle humanism that has been endowed by a millennium of pastoral activity.  The tranquil pleasure of being in these places is amplified in sketching the details and studying the order in the elements.
