I have titled this painting in the Cezanne tradition, (see below). A useful reference point as there are several locations to view the hills from, but a little too long? Besides, I take such liberties with the composition that even a local would struggle to recognise any of my views. I think these paintings will follow a meandering path in terms of style as I focus on different elements in the landscape, but for me this is where the interest lies. There cannot be anything as uninspiring as certainty?
