Summer Light Painting

Long walks with music in my ears on summer evenings is the most enjoyable part of my summer. Often during these walks I take pictures of the trees, wild flowers and the sky. Some of these pictures form the reference to my paintings although I do not reproduce the picture and personalise the piece with the memory of the scene that inspired me to paint. This particular location is somewhere I walk everyday, dog walkers are often amused when I am taking pictures and some stop by to chat wondering what is so captivating about the trees and peeping sun. The light shining through the gap between the leaves and branches sets a sparkling show that always brings back happy memories of past summers.
