This painting was originally made as a Triptych in 'The Fire Within' series.
I sold the two end pieces a couple of years back to a family (dear friends) in Canada. I kept this middle painting as I loved it and was not ready to part with it.
I recently showed 'Of Fire I' in the 'Of Tree's and Water' exhibition. I am happy to say, it has found it's new home with a wonderful family I like very much, so it helps to know I may get to see it again on their wall!
There comes a time when a painter must let go of work to make way for the new. There is always new work coming through and it is hard not to get attached to some pieces that become 'favorites' but there is only so much wall space and there is something deeply satisfying about selling a painting you want to keep for yourself.
I hope the family who bought it enjoys it as much as I have..
Here is a picture of all three pieces hung together.
