A visit to the old Tate a few days ago, found us standing in front of so many wonderful paintings by Turner. I still haven’t recovered and don’t want to!
The beauty, the delicacy, the skill, the insight and intelligence and the passion of his use of colour and what he does with some simple tubes of paint, I suddenly realised I must always remember this when planning planting schemes. By seeing with new eyes every day, whether bright or dull light, the possibilities and brilliance which are all around us and can be made or missed, these are our opportunities, at no extra cost, to make dullness or living in heaven.
Let’s experiment with colour, use colour, be bold, be bright, be gaudy, be adventurous and have a party every day, learn and get better and refine as you go along, let life be bright and colourful! Chink! Party time!
