A real and psychological pause ensued: no exhibition commitments and no demands from her public life allowed her the chance to do something for herself. These twelve paintings represent a return to work in her studio in West Linton, where Crowe has found full expression of her life force and then been generous and imaginative enough to share her work with a poet. Creativity is always a response to something, but also a point of departure, and on the following pages, we become part of the artist's spiritual journey. \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003e(T\u003c\/em\u003eaken from the introduction by Christine Jansen of The Scottish Gallery)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eChristine De Luca was born and brought up in Shetland in a fully bilingual environment.
