So sorry to hear about Louis' toe! Isn't it amazing how fast they perk up, tho? And I'll bet the hospital was a bit of an adventure for him! Thank you again for the lovely week in Tuscany; it was a rare treat for me to watch you paint. The quinces are lovely--when I actually settle down and have my own walls again, I WILL buy a painting! Best wishes for a speedy recovery for you, Ruth, and Louis! -Shelley

I enjoy receiving my painting a day. particularly loved the quinces as we grow them in our garden. What a contrast between the delicate blossom to the chunky fruit.

Painter’s notes

The painting I finished on Friday, just as all the calls came in about Louis having been in an accident at his Circus School... a fractured toe, a little bashed about but after a 24hr hospital stay he is now whizzing about on crutches and I finally get to post my painting, here's looking forward to a drama free few weeks and a quick recovery... quinces from Louis' friends garden
