Acrylic on canvas this one. Replied to ad online request for artist to paint a restaurant scene so emailed some of my stuff and she gave me her instructions and reasons for the painting. It was a commission for a painting of Papa Joe's restaurant in Dundee for a lady who wanted the finished painting as a wedding present for her brother and his wife.

The restaurant has various objects on shelves in the window and also planes and other items hanging from the ceiling inside.

It was well received when I handed it to the buyer and has a frame and hanging on their wall at home.
