THERE is a recent work by Piers Browne that I would love to see, as he describes it: “I have been doing a big drawing of birds in a wide land- and seascape, and the water is very important. You have the space and the sea and the movement of birds in their shapes and flocks across the water. I have only just done that and it is in a drawer at the moment – I am not sure it is quite ready to come out yet.”
Fortunately Browne’s wonderful, prompted HM King Charles III, then Prince of Wales, to write: “I find your pictures hauntingly and evocatively beautiful. In fact, having seen them I hardly dare do any more myself.”
