I returned to Newstead Abbey, where I came two years ago to make studies for a painting. (THIS LINK). This time I didn’t choose the building as my subject, but rather one of the fountains instead. I think the result is much better. I really like painting with acrylics on stretched brown wrapping paper, but then worry that, if it sells, it might be rather too frail to last through the years in someone else's possession.
