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.
