thoughts and things by Annalea Van Nes |
Hello beautiful people. Since the last post I hope I’ve kept you waiting for something worthwhile… A large painting Poor Man’s Supper (6’ x 4.5’) has finally been revealed to the patron and hangs in a family dining room near Dorset, UK, after a successful launch party at the end of January. Here is a rough image of the painting in its final stage, with pictures of progression from the beginning, to follow…

During the completion of Poor Man’s Supper the family decided to re-paint their dining room, from a safe cream to mustardy yellow. Having had free range over the colour scheme with little specificity from the family, it was a relief to see how perfectly the painting matched the walls and raw sienna-type tiles and table. It couldn’t fit better.
