It was more intense, more diffuse - almost like Provence. The greyness of Surrey seemed to be left behind. It is this marvellous light pervading the landscape hereabouts that is the great attraction to me as a painted. It aluminates quite ordinary scenes and foliage and makes them magical." He was always drawn to harbours, boats and quays and this scene of The River Arun in West Sussex is a particular favourite."
