other things to do on the long winters' nights




Kat took me to a huge brocante in Carcassonne yesterday where
I bought a really bad painting in a good frame. Thought I could
overpaint and set about stripping, unprepared for the fact that
acrylic had been painted over primer which had been drawn on,
on top of oil. Strange. And hard to remove.

So I photographed it here, mid process - nice - and then cut it off
and restretched.
Fear that whatever I do on it will not be as interesting.
