To capture the depth of an enchanting river alcove or bucolic landscape, Russian artist Anastasia Trusova works in what she calls “textured graphic impressionism,” a unique style that expresses emotion through detail and volume. She uses a combination of palette knives and brushes to deftly layer acrylic paints into dreamy scenes: heavy impasto forms lush foliage, coiled lines shape thick clouds, and an array of smaller dabs become fields of wildflowers. “I don’t think about the rules.

Just popped into Durslade Farm, just outside Bruton in Somerset, home of the new Hauser + Wirth gallery. The Guardian are talking about it as the "new Guggenheim". We shall see. Whatever artworks it will host, it is a wonderful design project, with the 19th century farm buildings being lovingly and imaginatively restored to provide gallery spaces, all being done to an incredibly high standard. Piet Oudolf is doing the planting, of a courtyard area and a field out the back which will link the gallery to the surrounding countryside via blocks of perennials. He seems very pleased with the project. A distinct feature is the elevations in each block, which don't look much now, but will probably have quite an impact on how we see the plants. Jo walking down the newt fencing The newt fencing is a legal requirement apparently, special buckets have to be set out for them to fall into so they, and other trapped amphibians can be then removed to the safe side. All well and good, except that I don't see one of the causes of reptile/amphibian decline being dealt with anytime soon - the shooting industry and its legions of pheasants which gobble them up wholesale. Jo with Alice Workman, gallery Director This promises to be a very exciting project, and nice to have it relatively nearby for frequent visits.

Ah, let us take a moment to admire this exquisite verdure tapestry, a testament to the weaver's art from a bygone era. At first glance, the richness of the arboreal scene beckons. The foliage is masterfully depicted with an array of greens, from the tender shoots of spring to the deep, resolute shades of summer. Each leaf, each branch, is a celebration of the weaver's skill, a dance of color and form. Notice the architectural elements—a crumbling stone archway, the hint of a grand estate in the distance, a classical urn from which water flows, adding a sense of movement and life to the piece. The animals, oh the animals—a congregation of birds, perhaps a family of cranes, rendered with anatomical precision, are the living jewels of this woven landscape. They bring a touch of the animate to the scene, a snapshot of nature's serene routine. The border is equally deserving of our attention, with its symphony of florals that frame the central narrative, and serves as a reminder of the tapestry's heritage. This, dear friends, is not merely a wall hanging. It's a historical document, a piece of the past's puzzle that tells a story of taste, luxury, and the human desire to capture the essence of nature's unspoken poetry. Don't just decorate. Elevate.
