Edinburgh



Just when I thought it was safe to go back into the studio. New canvas, new size, same old oils (though I am trying a  non-flammable, low odor paint thinner to replace my beloved but toxic, stinky and highly flammable  turpentine.)

I can't quite reconcile the visual memory of this place-  the roads, the quilted landscape -with painting it. 

Though I don't really like it,  I am feeling a little Milton Avery-ish with this first wash. Each painting seems to be a little art history tour for me, lately.  Forget the seven faces of eve, I am the 200 chapters of Jansens.
