I have cheated a little by starting with a high summer photo from last year, just to cushion my return to the UK from Mexico. However, one of my primary intentions of returning to the UK was not to drop the stronger colour palette that is more at home in much hotter climates. I am liking the look of this painting, the colours are saturated but subtle, and I think the space is working well. Its a Byzantine trick of just stacking one object in front of another, I like the effect that has.
