Oil on canvas | 14 x 11 inches
I was quite into the work of Zorn for a time, so that opened my eyes to a range of subjects I wouldn’t really have seen with a view to paint. This painting depicts the kitchen in our house in Cornwall, though now the wood surrounding of the fireplace has been replaced with granite – I’m not sure whether the granite would make better the painting or not! There were beautiful colour combinations and subtleties in tone and lovely soft and hard edges that were a real joy to paint.
