Slow progress, but progress, and that’s what I am interested in, what’s the hurry? For someone who has always claimed never to like painting trees I have got myself in a right mess here. I think I may even turn things full circle and start to seek them out, there are landscape painters who don’t paint them, they tend to be very much non figurative painters. As a landscape painter I think you have to take it all on, and that’s what I am doing in this picture.
