Two New Paintings for “Nottingham Our City – Save St Luke”
Successful week; I managed 2 paintings in two days, which considering my busy picture framing schedule, is quite the achievement! The above were painted plein air on Tuesday and Wednesday of last week in time for the current exhibition at the Nottingham Society of Artists – Nottingham Our City- Save St Luke. The hand crafted frames are finished in Farrow and Ball colours Hardwick White, Light Grey and Lime white. Although I was hoping for sunshine, the dreary weather on the Wednesday turned into a positive, as I managed to capture a similar scene to the day before but with a whole different feel.
