With The Fez On / Watercolour

Description

With the Fez on : Watercolour 22″ x 15″ ” I love old historic postcards. I buy them when I can and if they are of relevance to me. I find the sepia ones particularly interesting, not just for their snapshot value but also the colour sepia tends to infer their history. This painting is a translation from several Egyptian postcards in sepia and I have added my own colourations based on my visit there. The title comes from a Steely Dan song ! …so all in all a historic reference and modern interpretation…art can be made from any number of sources! “
