Interesting to learn about your technique ... and a lovely result it is too.

A great way to produce such wonderful results Shaun. I’m inspired to try this method. Love the unusual subject material.

That’s a sad outcome….love the yellow post box! Can’t you petition to have it reinstated?

Many thanks for your comments. Fiona, they moved the post box to a different place and nobody knows the whereabouts of the statue. It is sad!

I was commissioned to reproduce a painting of this scene. The statue and postbox were removed during road surfacing and unfortunately never reinstalled. I initially used oil pastel then use turps to soften the surface. I then used oil pastel and acrylics to add the details.

I try to achieve vibrant colours in my paintings. I work intuitively with large flat brushes - I also try not to overwork my pictures and they are often completed in two sittings. I use good quality acrylics because of their excellent pigment content. I like to interpret what i see in front of me…
