THE EARLY SHIFT

People going to work at first light pass my house on foot and bicycle .Construction workers are usually the earliest,I hear many languages spoken, especially Polish ,as they head towards the big red cranes in this rapidly developing city.

RETAIL THERAPY

Cambridge city is busy with people shopping.
What shoppers are carrying seems suggest a story about them that  I like to capture in paintings .
Flowers may be  for a special anniversary gift.Tiffany's use tiny blue bags--is that an engagement ring or love token in there?
The pretty young woman in the red coat has several bags from designer label stores,a windfall or pay rise to celebrate perhaps.
Ladies cluster together to discuss where the best bargains may be had,it has to be the market,Lidl or Aldi for those.

SEEING RED

St Valentine's day is on 14th February and the flower shops are displaying red roses .
A gift of red  roses is always a romantic gesture.

There is something about a red dress that is special, so is that most romantic of dances, the tango.My favourite tango music --Por Una Cabeza and Libertango by A.Piazzolla


                                         

Tango (SOLD)

SPRING COLOUR,ANEMONES, PRIMROSES and BLUEBELLS

Some of my favourite spring flowers are anemones .I love their bright colours and bold thick stems.They always look good in a very plain pot or glass tankard.

It is still too cold for primroses outside but a few planted in a terracotta pot will last well indoors in a cool place.
