Despite the stormy start, the week has settled down to nice fresh weather. The magnificent bright sunshine emphasises the new foliage and the hedgerows full of flowers. The big advantage of this type of weather is that you can happily sit all day in the sun without getting hot. Later on in the summer, painting views are to some extent determined by the search for a shady patch from which to work. Yesterday the morning was spent in Villars, and on the way back we stopped to wonder at this field bursting with colour.
In the afternoon David took the group out the back of Les Bassacs to the olive grove that gives views south onto the Luberon hills.

Today a very quiet and peaceful Menerbes was the venue for a successful morning painting.
