London Coliseum – Original Painting
About the picture:
A pink tower looming over St Martin’s Lane, the London Coliseum makes it’s mark, with it’s cagework globe adorning its tip. Behind, a deep blue sky is fights the ever growing clouds. We can’t see anything below the first floor, but signs of London life prevail. Flags promoting the theatre adorn its front. In the foreground is a pub sign for the Chandos, suitably ornate for a public house in the centre of the metropolis.
Creation: The original picture was initially drawn with pencil onto watercolour paper on board. These lines were then drawn over using masking fluid and then painted using watercolour paint and acrylic ink. Salt was also used in the process and some of the ink blown around using a straw. Once the painting was dry the masking fluid was removed to reveal the finished painting.
