Description
I was spending a week at the Southampton Art School in the summer of 1913. Two different classes ran back to back. It was fun!
The afternoon sun directed us to paint looking northerly along the rocky shore of Chantry Island. Trees, rocks, flowers and birds were mixed in with the landscape. American produced haze from Michigan provided the murky horizon within the marine inversion. Large particulates in the marine inversion dropped the visibility to maybe 6 miles and created a darker, mauve layer on the horizon. We were breathing that air but you couldn't readily taste the difference - the change in air masses wasn very gradual. The trick was to get the colours, values and intangible feel of the special place without drawing every leaf. It was a wonderful day at a special place at Chantry Light, Southampton.

I was teaching at the time and that was indeed the message I was trying to get across... and to consider which pieces get included and which get lost:>)) Thank you Sunny.
