Lunch at the Butt and Oyster
This was painted on 16" x 12" Saunders High White Rough from an on site painting of the same size. I was trying to draw the eye to the diners by painting them as one tonal shape but also having just got the book by Charles Reid using his Magic Triangle design with two other dark shapes in the left hand boat jumble and the right hand fence. Again thinking of his teaching I have tried to understate the actual building.The masts etc were introduced to break uo the essentially horizontal design. For me it is a bit too fussy but you only learn by trying other peoples style. I also suspect this type of subject may have suited my style better on Bockingford NOT. Any suggestions on how to improve this most welcome
