Overseas MemoriesI bring my paints when travelling. While I photograph extensively (and well), my paintings last most strongly for me as mementos of special places and views. Painting makes me look harder than when I take a photo, and I of course can ‘edit’ or ‘enhance’ what I see when painting it. Plus I can recall and savour the experience and challenge of when I actually did the painting on site.
