'Tress works into Nature, clawing into his surfaces in a mixture of media, creating a thicket of line or impasto, removing it, retreating, beneath mobile, airy skies. His practice is only marginally less intuitive than Joan Eardley's in Aberdeenshire, in sunlight or under snow, where the fickle weather, hot or cold, was at the core of the work.
