Own work: the Methodist Chapel, Bourne

     I finished this an hour ago.  It's taken two weeks and three attempts to produce something I'm vaguely satisfied with; mainly I think caused by the evenness of the building and texture.  I more readily respond to the picturesque, the textured, bricolage. The usual mixed media, and, like my Baptist Chapel of a month ago, a rather Piper-esque painting.  The chapel itself is the work of the nineteenth century Bourne architect Thomas Pilkington, who was responsible for the Town Hall in Market Deeping which this blog visited in Jan 2017. Here  A cold, grey looking day it was too, when the sky and stone of the buildings around me were almost the same colour.
