A DAY DEDICATED TO LEISURE ACTIVITIES

Cycling, painting and checking the roses for greenfly. A summers day that was deemed too hot for manual labour. The way this Yew tree is going I am quite motivated to turn to the garden for a few paintings. I have found in the past that subjects that seem too banal for painting always yield far better results than expected. This painting has required intense looking and slow painting. Whether this is the right approach I don’t know but I am liking the way it is progressing.
