The Japanese Ume (plum) Tree

Peter Davidson


I enjoy drawing and painting my beauty of the Ume(plum) tree in Japan with its sharp ragged barren stemmed beauty that erupts into flowers at the end of the cold Japanese winters, they’re a visual delight.

Sometimes people ask me why do I paint beauty? The answer is simple I am drawn to what I consider is beautiful, I don’t need any other reason than that or even to write a theory behind the image to explain my attraction to it.

And my beauty is not yours. Everyone’s measure  of beauty is independent and different therefore I hope you can appreciate mine in this smallish spring exhibition of 10 artworks.
