This Pen and Watercolour Sketch from Marks and Spencer of
Westwood Cross Broadstairs painted today while the fairer sex in my family were shopping, used a size S Pitt pen Winsor and Newton artists
quality watercolours, mostly cobalt blue, paynes grey for the bluey grey and
ivory black for the window frames grey.
As you see the window frames are actually straight, the idea
of the curve was that it could either be a curve in or a curve out, depending
how you perceive it.
There is a sense here of taking a grey Volvo to Marks and
Spencer and looking out on purgatory, I guess purgatory isn’t so bad as long as
you are allowed paint, paper, brush and water.

Comments, since I started writing this blog in 2007 the way the internet works has changed a lot, comments and dialogue here were once viable in an open and anonymous sense. Now if you comment here I will only allow the comment if it seems to make sense and be related to what the post is about. I link the majority of my posts to the main local Facebook groups and to my Facebook account, “Michael Child” I guess the main Ramsgate Facebook group is We Love Ramsgate. For the most part the comments and dialogue related to the posts here goes on there. As for the rest of it, well this blog handles images better than Facebook, which is why I don’t post directly to my Facebook account, although if I take a lot of photos I am so lazy that I paste them directly from my camera card to my bookshop website and put a link on this blog.
