Painted yesterday on a very sunny October day at St James Park with 80 or so other plein air painters! It was fun being part of this gathering and enjoyed chatting with lots of artists, it was hard to focus on the painting!
This was not any easy subject with so many greens – bit of a shock after Venice colours, I felt rusty with mixing them and ‘seeing’ them. But I’m pleased with the outcome, the fountain was especially fun to paint.
You have always managed to paint trees and shrubs so beautifully; I am not surprised that this painting is so up to your standard even after the Venice sojourn.
