I was struck by the darkness of the ironwork making a bold zed. But sooo many lines to describe it.
That was 12 by 10. Here’s a little A5 lunchtime sketch that encouraged me to try again later with a deeper format; painted holding an ice cream in one hand. I don’t think there was very much cadmium paint in so I should live to paint another day.

Ian, an RWA, Mall Galleries and Holburne portrait prize exhibited artist also paints the Portishead coastline.

impressive – I like the turquoisey colour – like tarnished copper ( or maybe that’s what it actually is! )
Thanks Aidan. Verdigris is the name for it isn’t it? It’s a lovely word and colour. The pier, however, is painted not tarnished sadly.
