Happy New Year!

Happy New Year 2023 everyone. May you all have a very creative year in good health, joy, and prosperity.
3 John 2 NKJV

Here is just one of the paintings I have been working on recently, a practice piece which is still a work a progress. Inspired by a visit to London last year, it is a nocturnal of one of the city stores.

It is also my first time in trying out the water soluble oil paints from Daniel Smith Paints. A very limited supply, with primaries red, blue, yellow plus a white and a black, not quite the Zorn palette. I have used a small canvas board here measuring 7" x 9"
