Back to some small studies in burnt umber on small boards (30 by 45cm); still all of Betty, but a nice change from the big oil-glazed ones.
And for an slightly bigger change, a street scene from Melbourne (thanks Bean for the pic) with all sorts of entertainment going on. I particularly like the exchange of glances (impossible to see yet) between the guitarist and the lad sat outside the cafe between his parents. This is a big canvas, the same size as the big camel one (120cm by something bigger I think), so again, will be a while before it starts getting resolved (or not) but a good fun challenge even if it doesn't work. I'm kind of wondering about leaving the black lines in (I like the look on the double bass) so may play with a new style as well a new subject matter. Mmmm.
