It’s lovely to be able to go out and about a little more freely while still complying with social distancing. It gives one time to attempt a sketch without having to rush things.
Today I went to visit the replica stone age roundhouse close to my home which was built a couple of years ago, to see how it has mellowed. Someone has added a bit of decoration to in the form of a large pair of eyes on the doors. I am not sure if this is some authentic Iron age art or not, but I thought it gave a menacing feel to the house (an early version of security camera perhaps?) so I chose to leave it out. It also has a gateway with a very un-Iron age padlock which is a shame. Still nice to paint though!
