A bit about this couple in an allotment.

One afternoon in high summer I was making my way home on another baking train, we were packed out like salted fish in a tin, all pretty miserable. The woe was added to when the train began to slow in between stops. Another delay.

By chance the train came to a halt beside the allotment. I cast my eye over to see what was what. About 30 meters away was a couple in their plot. She in a summer dress picking fresh vegetables and Sunflowers, he in a deck chair fast asleep. From my static, roasting prison it looked idyllic. Sigh….

Well, I decided to paint the scene as I first saw it along with a silent promise to put an end to commuting.

Once I had finished, I entered it into The Royal Academy Summer Exhibition, and my application was successful. At least something good came out of that commute.
