Pescado Conservas - Fish Canning Factory in Olhao, Portugal

Olhao, Portugal, 22" x 15".

The local fish canning factory in Olhao - Pescado Conservas - or as someone remarked when they first saw my painting - "Ah, Tescos"! - seeing my partial sign top right... The initial wash was a light cerulean blue for the sky, then changing to a mainly yellow ochre wash in the lower half. After drying, the background trees then were painted, carefully around the tops of the cars, and then the road and foreground. Next were building details on the right, going quite dark around the base and the right hand car. Last were the left hand cars, figures and some street furniture.
