These paintings are done directly from the landscape, either through a window or outside, and never from photographs or memory. The spirit of place can only enter a painting through a painter absorbed in the natural environment. The sounds, breeze, temperature, smells and glimpses of moving life enter the picture, either consciously or unconsciously, along with the expressive visual record of shapes, colours and tones as they are on that particular day.
