    I'm sorry to be a doubting Thomas, Harriet, but are you sure that your beautiful blossom is hawthorn (also known as May blossom)? It's a little on the early side for hawthorn to flower, even if you do live in the milder south west. I think it looks more like blossom belonging to the prunus family (see images of prunus domesticus). Also, your beautifully painted leaves are single and oval but hawthorn leaves (although roughly oval in shape) are lobed into three segments and quite profuse. Anyway - whatever it is, it's really lovely and, as always, your beautiful painting more than does it justice.
