This series, made shortly after moving from the city, to the countryside, celebrates the life and vitality of Spring emerging.
"I took the route of painting what was most meaningful to me in terms of subject matter, day by day, it varied from a branch, the trunk, the branches extending towards me relative to the branches extending away, the holes where previous branches had dropped off. The sensory experience played a large part in the process. Each painting is painted in one sitting, plein air, on one day. Because of this, my focus is on trying to get it all down and decision making is intuitive"
