how different the two lavender paintings...yesterdays almost sensual as the lavender undulated across the field toward the trees...todays lavender almost secondary to the vastness of the view beyond of the sky and mountains and further fields. i loved them both. thank you always for the beauty of yr paintings. gfs

Hi Julian What intrigues me about the two lavender paintings is the intensity of the colour of the lavender. In yesterday' s painting it was vivid as was the yellow. Today it is softer. The relationship of the painter to the lavender is the same in the sense that he is very close to it at a certain point and consequently places us there. It must be the light as the places are different or seem so. It may also reflect a difference in the time of the day. Or it may not be a real place at all but one that is in the painter's imagination.

The color of the lavender varies from field to field and the direction of the light and time of day, as you guessed, make a difference too.
