Why wait six months for the seasons to change when you can fast forward summer by adding a bit of colour? It seems to me that I was feeling a little bit sorry for this lonely figure freezing by the canal side. I could have stuck with a wintry scene, its not that I dislike cold colours. I think once I started to introduce some warm light I pushed it further than planned. No regrets, its a different kind of picture now, maybe I will paint an accompanying winter scene, a Breughel like theme of the seasons.
