There is one particular tree on the property that Henny regards deeply. He has painted it countless times – as a study of colour, but also as a way to immerse himself in nature. ‘I walk there when it is still dark and at that time you cannot see colour and I try to paint it, but when the light comes you can get an enormous variety (of colours),’ he says. ‘It is awe-inspiring and the tree, in a way, becomes your master.’
