Alley with Bins

A 'straight' painting, but pushing around ideas about tone, colour and composition.

This is awesome, do you ever use a tonned ground? The perspective is so accurate, I was wondering if you used pencil first and then fixed it, crikey this shit excites me!

cheers anon - I'm using a toned ground in new works, but this painting didn't have one. there was a lot of playing around with this trying to get it to work the way I wanted.

It's beautiful. I love it. I love the dumpsters, something so overlooked is beautiful again through an artist's vision.
