This is a painting of a tree I can see growing above the houses from my front window, well it's actually to the side, but I have a sort of window bay and I can see this tree as I write this entry in my Blog, I dare say it's on Richmond Road.Sometimes you get a really nice sky behind this tree. I loved the way there was a mixture of cool blue, purple and this mad yellow blue which would be a totally impossible colour if it were not seen in context. I mean it looks yellow and it looks blue and it doesn't look green. It's a colour that could only exist in a sky, or a painting of a sky. Almost like a new colour that seems to break all the rules of colour theory, quite amazing when you think about it a contradiction that just should not be, and yet there it is just like magic. :)
