Whipps Cross Road
The windows at Matalan
Oil on canvas
30″ x 40″
The painting is a commission I did of the view along the road towards Hollow Ponds. It came about from my involvement in the trail last year and took about half a year to complete, painting in holidays as I am a full time secondary school teacher.
The view includes the owners’ house on the left, a 275 bus and the speed camera which they specifically requested to be left in!
