Fresh greens, soft blossoms, warm yellows, and the tentative blues of a sky beginning to open — the colours of a world coming back to life.
Spring arrives as a negotiation between the last cold and the first warmth. The colours appear tentative at first — pale greens barely distinguishable from grey, blossoms that look almost white in early morning light — and then, suddenly, vivid. Forsythia turns the hedgerows gold before a single leaf has appeared. Cherry blossom opens in a pink so delicate it seems to hover in the air. The sky shifts from winter's flat white through a pale, luminous blue that feels like a promise. This palette tries to hold all of that at once: the freshness of new grass, the warmth of early daffodils, the soft lilac of wisteria just beginning to open, and the cool clarity of April light.
