Tales,Tales- A4 oil on canvas by Veronica Aldous
Just finished today. I started this as a demonstration for an art class. The canvas was coated with coral coloured acrylic before commencing with oil. I do like the warm undercoat against the oil paint. Sometimes I use cerise or orange! The little folk are running along a path through a cold forest somewhere in France. I was thinking of Fontainbleau as I would love to go there. As they are running they are changing into foxes or maybe they are just wearing costumes like in a Fete Galante.
