Another benefit I have just discovered with the new studio is with a combination of a hard vinyl floor and a chair with wheels it means I am very mobile. I can glide between palette and easel with ease and glide back away from the painting to view it. I had Straus Waltzes playing today, I’m sure I was in time with the music. This painting is nearly finished, there is a lot going on and a lot to think about. I am pleased with the outcome. Because my style is quite graphic and saturated it reminds me of those early 20th century travel posters. I am still deciding whether this is a good thing or not?
