Plein-air painting
Oil on linen-faced board in a light wood tray frame 24 x 18 cm (27 x 21 cm frame)
Sitting on a sunlit lawn, head on to the layering of the herbaceous border and bench backed by a sandstone wall, with the glasshouse behind and bright sky. A very urgently painted image, all the better for that. I enjoy the swirls of paint of the ornate metal bench.
