This September we again meet in the community center every Tuesday morning. New beginnings after a very long and sad summer. Decided it was about time to take out the 10 small canvases 30 x 30 cm I bought at a sale a few months ago.
I love old buildings, houses, walls etc. Found some wonderful images on the Wetcanvas Reference Image Library.. These were built up slowly using a quite limited palette of my chromatic black that I make from raw umber and ultramarine blue, ultramarine blue, white and yellow ochre. Worked mainly with the palette knife. After each layer did a bit of sandpapering. May do it again on these three.... to soften some of the areas.
