My father’s irises.
I’m back from a short visit to the South of France, and this is the first painting I’ve done since I got back. (oooh, no lines between the colours! That’s unusual for me, it will be interesting to see if I revert to my usual style on the next painting: the wonderful bluebell woods in Grosmont. The hazy delicacy of the bluebells doesn’t lend itself to lines, so this looser approach may be right…)
