About the Image:
Visiting the London Art Fair at the Business Design Centre for the first time I was as much interested in the building as the Art on display. Naturally I took photographs. The building was originally the Royal Agricultural Hall but was converted into the design Centre in 1986.
The roof is both typical of large structures like train sheds and atypical in the degree of decoration, I love the way the Victorians pay equal attention to decor and structure The elaborate shapes and repetition of elements to create a vast but apparently delicate form.
The painting was exhibited at the Society of Women Artist’s Exhibition in 2013.
Creation: Masking fluid is painted onto watercolour paper to create an image. This is covered with a watercolour wash and covered with clingfilm. The picture is further developed using acrylic inks once the film is removed. The masking is removed after several layers are added and allowed to dry. Revealing the final picture.
