“My kind antique dealer friends smuggled leafy lemons direct from Italy for me this Summer. They call out in their celebration of distant warmer climes. They are, heat, sun, happiness and joy! Placed within a simple medieval pewter bowl in this contemplative space they feel symbolic. I painted en plein air in the bright sharp sunshine, dramatic contrasts and luminous light bounce around the still life which emerges from the shadows.” - Chloë Holt RCA FRSA
