No garbage here Derek, but I do note the possessive apostrophe!

I remember this song from the '60's Derek, you don't hear it much these days, which is a pity, but you've brought it back to life again. Super painting!

Extensive use of the complimentary colours , really give this a zing. Captured the atmosphere well Derek in your unmistakable style.

The name of the song - not the restaurant eh! Great use of colour and marks - another great semi-abstract from the Snowden stable - err sorry - restaurant. i

Fascinating technique and fascinating to view. Love the little person at the bottom!

Full of life Derek and I love the figures at the front! You do miracles with your cards!

Thanks Louise and Satu. The little person at the bottom is taken fron the cover of the CD, Arlo himself.

Wow, Derek, you're getting really good at abstracting shapes and form yet keeping cohesion in the whole. Super piece!

24 x 34 cms on paper. Alaways amused by Arlo Guthrie's song which you must listen to all 18mins of it. Cards plus the slightest touch of brush pen to try and create and atmosphere of the scene which we have visited

About the Artist

Derek Snowdon

Eleventyeight as my hashing pals called my new age recently, it's supposed to sound better. Trying to paint every day in acrylics using only expired credit/debit cards, and partially succeeding as they're only for me and not show these days.
