Right off, this seems like two landscapes - most of the wild ground cover dappled with flowers below, and above that a band of lush green farm land interrupted by a few trees and a copse of them on the left, and muted lavender hillside beyond it with a gray but tender sky on top. I am started by the green band on the far right with what seems to be, in this soft-focus Sykes, a wall of trees, perhaps a wind break. In sum, this is a delicate landscape without landmark stresses but still satisfying in its parts. It is the sort of subject I would explore with a limited frame in order to look for and enjoy satisfying compositions within. (Click to Enlarge - perhaps twice even.)
