I walked down to the local waterfall and was pleased to find Chris Orr RA painting it under a makeshift tent, for all the world as if he was John Ruskin, but, unlike Ruskin, he was converting it into a Chinese Waterfall in the manner of Chiang Yee who made conventional English scenes look as if they were in Peking:-
How delightful to find him at work. The waterfall is quite beautiful and indeed suggests just that treatment to me. Someday I’d like to visit it with a panoramic camera used vertically to create that ‘scroll-painting’ air.
