A PRODUCTIVE DAY

I am not sure if I have caught anyone’s idea of a spring day, it looks a bit bleak and not a cherry blossom in sight. There is still time to save it although its not a concern. I like the parade of odd shaped bushes in the foreground. I do have a fascination for this and its not really shared by many landscape artists. I can only think of 2 and they are not know primarily as landscape painters, Stanley Spencer and Edward Burra. The prevalent style I see is the gestural semi abstract approach, its ok, but me being deeply unfashionable, at least I stand out.
