Ecology
The role ecology plays within the work of Lil Tudor-Craig is perfectly captured by Patrick Reyntiens in his review of her 2008 exhibition at the Francis Kyle Gallery.
" Size is not of importance in art; it is quality and integrity that gives us a lasting experience, and here we have something which will persist in our memory for a very long time.
Lil Tudor-Craig's eyes were opened early in her career by the teaching of the mystical and singular Cecil Collins. Her paintings in this exhibition are of the wild life and the insect life, together with the natural vegetation of her home county of Suffolk. She is an expert on wild flowers and their connection to the insect life of our world. We do not for the most part understand how dependant we are for our health and existence, on the different insects, without whom the flowers would never be fertilised.. . . .
