Yate, South Glos, 15" x 11".
A quick sketch (I think about an hour) of the main road leading into my home town, and a view across to the local hardware store with its car park on the right. The whole painting was done in a very loose style, plenty of contrast between light and shade, and plenty of dry brush strokes to 'roughen' up the appearance of the road surface. Perhaps the focal point is the entrance to the car park with that reflection of light on the car side window and the solitary figure walking towards us.
