Spring

Nothing is so beautiful as Spring –

….The glassy peartree leaves and blooms, they brush

The descending blue; that blue is all in a rush….

Extract from ‘Spring’ by Gerald Manley Hopkins 1877

The works in this collection are a series of paintings based on Spring. Responding to the colours, light and events of Spring, the small paintings are each painted on board on a gesso surface using oil prepared pigments.
