Latest Project

Yes, it's back to the trams, I'm afraid. This is the latest picture I'm working on - and it's taken me a couple of hours to get this far with it: -


There is something different about this one. Every painting I've done before I've sketched onto the canvas with an ordinary graphite pencil before I've applied any paint to the canvas. With this one, though, I decided to try to sketch with the brush as I went along. Maybe this is the reason why it seems to be taking so much longer than usual . The tram itself isn't finished by any stretch of the imagination, but there's things I really want to do with the background before I go back to it. The white area on the extreme right is going to be a building.
