From the Newcastle to Edinburgh Train Window I saw many oil-seed rape fields in Scotland. I had taken a group of painters to Nagano in Japan to paint the Oil Seed Rape Park which is ranked the number one most popular park in Japan by would-be-visitors. Almost all the oil-seeds rape fields in the UK were bigger than those of Japan. In addition, here and there in Scotland, we can see similar looking yellow shrub brooms but also gorse flowers which have a distinctive coconut scent.
