I thought I should share a nice story with you: do you remember when I last spoke to you I told you I was going to try and paint our vegetable garden?

Well, I decided to paint it on a cloudy/misty/rainy/wintery day to make a change from all these wonderful spring landscapes I love to paint. So, here I was, having done only the basis of the picure when I received a group of Dutch people who spent 1 day with us. And one of them  decided to buy the partly done painting!

He is a good friend and he said the painting will remind him of us, of the past (through the antiquities) and of a now deceased relative who greatly encouraged me to develop this career. He is coming back to us with another group in June and will take it then, finished.

I haven't decided yet what I am going to paint next, Will let you know.
