I walk this way everyday…
These works were inspired by the blossoming plum trees in the little orchard that overhangs the driveway to the villa, I walk this way every day. Interacting with plants has a rhythm like poetry - many shades of green, pale luminous white, deep shadows, and the warming days, there’s a certain freedom in spring blossoms. With these paintings I strived to capture the rhythm and a sense of freedom.
Ana’s Garden
Fiesole | Florence
That mood of almost wild abandon…
Wisteria grows almost wild at the villa in Fiesole…every garden I have loved contained within it wild and billowing wisteria, the freedom with which it clambers elegantly and unruly, entices me to follow it’s mood of effortless flow.
These paintings were created with that mood of almost wild abandon and with the relaxed airiness that spring blooms bring into our lives.
