Description

This is a brightly coloured oil painting, using wax.

I took a little risk half way though this oil painting, by introducing some cold wax technique for the first time, which created more texture. I then used a palette knife to scratch it back to the base colour of a vivid yellow. I didn’t plan this painting, I just worked on it until it went from being an abstract to a scene I had witnessed and photographed down by the river.

I imagine this location has been a scene of play for millennia!
