St Johns from Redhill common August 2000
This (7th) painting was on the front cover of the August 2001 issue of Surrey County Council carers magazine Focus.

This view encompasses the Gatwick Airport and air-space. When painting this, the Concorde disaster occurred. I didn`t put the Concorde in the painting as someone suggested.

This painting was started off with the sky and whole distance (from different viewpoints) covering the top 2 thirds towards the centre of the board. I used process cyan, white and a touch of deep violet.

Then the trees in the mid ground were brushed in, leaving a gap for the church. A transparent touch of complementary process magenta brought out the shadows.
