      • Wolverhampton in Winter

        I just finished another (digital) painting project. A winter street scene this time, Queen’s Square, Wolverhampton in the esrly 20th century. I think this group of buildings, which still survive not all that much changed have a certain appeal.
        As usual, the onset of overly hot Perth summer measure has turned my mind to snowy paintings, so I worked from a range of photographs of this group but transposed them into a wintery snow scene. As with many of my projects this one sort-of grew in terms of the level of detail and took far longer than I expected!

      • Sketching from. Imagination

        Posted at 12:29 am by gatf, on December 8, 2019

        English town scene, from imagination. This started out as a quick test of some new “brushes” for the Procreate drawing App. Somehow the idea grew and ended up less than quick!
