Work Overview
I wrote this work in celebration of my first grandchild when she
was five years old. In each of the three sections I have tried to
capture a specific mood or space.
In the first section I imagined her painting with all the freedom
and lack of inhibition of a young child. The second section
explores a different mood altogether such as when a child
suddenly and for no apparent reason just "zones out" into a
daydream world. In the final section I have tried to bring back
the child's world of fun and frivolity. This, I find, is best
observed at bath time, especially (as in her case) if there is a
younger sibling involved.
