I just fancied a quick acrylic today. For this is an acrylic, not a watercolour, even though I ended up applying it as such. My original idea was to have this paper painting as part of a diptych, juxtaposing his one with a painting of a scene of Londoners sleeping on the platform of Holborn station during the Blitz. And you never know, I may yet do so. As it often does, the scanner has made a couple of rather idiosyncratic choices about the way that it picks out certain of the colours. I do rather like this, though - it's closer to what I was actually trying to do than I often get with acrylic or watercolour on paper.
