PAINTING OUT OF DOORS III

box in one hand and my brush in the other. I painted as quickly as I was able, racing with time and the demolishers' picks, enveloped, from time to time, as the steam trains passed, in smoke and smuts. Passers-by paused to look, some silently and unobtrusively, others making comments to each other, or to me. The youthful part of the audience always seemed to be surprised and delighted at being able to recognise my subject.

It was then, for the first time, that I began to ponder, and consider as an interesting problem, the thoughts and expectations of these on-lookers. More often than not they seem rather disappointed, which is certainly not surprising, particularly if the work is only just begun; but it does suggest that they were expecting something - that they had some preconscious idea of how the painting should look. I have tried to put myself in their place, to guess at what is expected. Is it a neat, easily recognisable reproduction of the Brewery, for example, or an enchanting vision of the building, burning and gleaming with colour and light, rising like a Venetian Palace from the glittering waters of the Thames?

The artistry and the technique of the painter should satisfactorily control and contain the main features and diversity of the scene, opening the spectators' eyes to things hitherto unobserved and unrealized. Thus the forces of wind and water, sun and earth, the elements enveloping landscape and architecture, the one-time gods of our ancestors, should be implicitly expressed and overcome by means of brush and paint and held on the canvas for our admiration.
