Dhampus

A painting I've just done.....


based on a photo taken in a place called Dhampus on 21/11/2011 while trekking in Nepal.....


Try blurring your eyes out of focus looking at the painting and you should see a resemblance to the photo

Pencil, acrylic and oil on wood. 37cm by 31cm.
Here it is in the making.....











I like the result but I ain't doing another like this.  I'm too lazy to be methodical in painting all the little squares precisely.  To get the pixelated effect right the lines all need to be neat and all the squares the same size and so on, I'm quite amazed that I stuck at it because I didn't enjoy doing it all that much, although I did start it on 17th July 2016, so that's taken exactly 9 months to complete!!!
