I like the blocky, abstract style you've achieved with the rollers - it mirrors the shape of the building, and it's very evocative.

Charmy Down is a disused RAF airfield near Bath. This painting of the main control building was made in acrylics, applied mainly with rollers with a little palette knife work. It is 18" x 24" on MDF.

About the Artist

Kate Wilkey

I came back to painting in 2015 after a 30 year break. I've experimented with several media, including oils, but am now painting in acrylics. I often paint harbours, and also do gelli plate printing to create abstract images. I live in Bath, England.
