This is the first painting I made especially for the exhibition 'Along Your Street' at Byard Art on King's Parade.
Most trips that I make into Cambridge include cycling down Trinity Street. It is small one way street with full of bikes and curves past St John's, Gonville Caius and of course Trinity. It also has a great bookshop, Heffers, a few nice restaurants and a lovely cafe in Michaelhouse, a converted church.
You can be forgiven for missing the tree outside Trinity. It is a descendant of the apple tree that Isaac Newton studied when he wrote about his theory of gravity, from his mother's garden in Lincolnshire!
