Nice Interior 1956. Reveiw of some old ideas.
As I move forward with my work it is great to look back and find things that are relevant to what I am doing now. This painted sketch was made in Nice in about 2003. I went on to begin an idea about empty interiors with suggested narrative. All of the paintings were done on paper and influencedin style by Matisse particularly “open window, Collioure “and Raoul Dufy. “Interior with an open window”. As with most things the idea slowly evolved and these pieces got forgotten in a folder.
The things that I learnt while making them are relevant now and it is lovely to find them and think about how I can encorporate them into current work.
What I enjoyed most was the lightness and joy in them! I even thought about framing and selling these for an instant! Perhaps I should give that some thought!



I definitely think these are sale-able – sellable?
Buy-able!
