28 x 21xm on reverse of a photo mount. Heavy gesso then with cards. Our art club wants an image to place on the cover of the annual exhibition catalogue. Never tried it before and suddenly the inspiration comes back. Now what next? From a local photo during the winter fest at Winchester including a market and an ice rink
