Wife is on the plane to Mexico, mother is on the train back home, this leaves my diary completely open with the only pressing appointment to pack a few suitcases for my own flight to Mexico. This is a painting I have had in mind for a few months. Firstly the grand house reminds me of some paintings by Cezanne of his own home. Secondly, I like the way this house is framed from all sides. left and right by trees, the field in front and a dark cloud above. I also like how the house is angular, naturally, but the border is all flowing lines.
The big house. Day 1
