Bathing 1, Rinsey
Oil on canvas. 47 x 57 x 3 cm (framed)
There is a cove on the Cornish coast that Rachel Jeffery has known all her life. Rinsey Cove tucked below the cliffs, accessible only on foot, known to those who seek it out. A place of dark rock, clear water and a particular quality of silence.
This small, intimate oil painting captures a moment of complete stillness, a figure waist-deep in the water, back turned, golden hair loose, completely absorbed in the cove around her. She is not performing. She is simply there. As with the boulders , Present. Belonging.
Painted in the cool, luminous palette of the Cornish sea, grey-green water, dark moss-covered rock, the pale light of an overcast day, this is a painting about the particular freedom of being alone in a wild place. Of the moment before you turn back.
Small enough to be intimate, beautiful enough to stop you in your tracks.
