The sense of space
This painting was done plein air in the village of South Scarle on the border of Lincolnshire. It was painted in one sitting. There are a few poppies in that field, can you see them?

Town End
The field shown right at the back of this painting behind this wheat field was at one time covered in stone cottages. But because the people of the village refused to pay their taxes, the land owner demolished their houses. Because of this history the field is still to this day full of quite large stones rendering it impossible to plough and therefore can not be used to grow crops. This is just on the border of the village of South Scarle in Nottinghamshire England UK. That is why i named the painting Town End.
