| A painting that beautifully sums up the light early in the morning rising behind the olive grove in Tuscany. Will be shown at the New End Gallery, Hampstead in an exhibition called In Leafy Groves and Glades.
This exhibition is complimentary to the Van Gogh and His Letters exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts, Picadilly. I have been continuously inspired by Van Gogh and his near Contemporaries, Monet and Renoir…and so I wish to acknowledge that.
I am very excited that I will be showing my tree paintings whilst Van Gogh’s are showing just down the road.
