Painting in the Sun
These landscapes have been made in different outdoor locations. Sunny weather inspires me as a painter; colours look bright and are easy to separate from each other. Sunny weather makes the insects active, and as the sun starts setting you can smell all the plants’ fragrances. Paint also reacts to the heat: oil paint becomes flexible and easy to mix, while egg tempera and watercolour don’t take long to dry. That helps painting multiple layers, as if the sun was so bright it makes you see through objects...
