Though nothing is explicit within the painting there are triggers,implications of landscape features. The curve of a track on a chalk down, the shape of a field, or corner of a meadow.
It doesn't matter where this comes from, they appear. They may be happy coincidences. A feature which is in a piece of flint, survives through a watercolour and on into the oil painting. The feature has been unlocked. Perhaps it is not a trackway but a scar.
These things could all be dismissed as unimportant, anything you look at hard enough reveals some shape, like clouds in the sky.
