A sunny afternoon at The Depot, Lewes

working out what can be fitted into the sketch

finished watercolour, includes a couple of characters to spot
the finished watercolour currently hangs on the wall in the Depot cafe/bar area
I have enjoyed painting cinemas recently, including the Duke of Yorks in Brighton, The Dome in Worthing and the Orion in Burgess Hill. Lewes has an absolutely fabulous new cinema in the Depot. Housed in the old Harveys brewery depot beside the railway station, it has been designed to nestle in the topography and be an absolute gem for Lewes.

It was however a bit of a challenge to paint, to fit in all the elements that I wanted, so as usual a little bit of artist's licence was needed!

I fancy painting a night time view, too. watch this space for that.
