The Covid-19 lock-down has given me a lot more time for painting.
I thought I would share some of the images I have of the process and the finished results from the series I am painting based on the music suit Pictures at an Exhibition by the Russian composer Modest Mussorgsky. It has taken me a couple of years to work through all the movements (pictures) and the promenades. I discovered I had drawn Catacombs and The Market, Limoges and not put them on glass, so those are the ones I have been working on at home. Here they are: one ready to blow and the other in progress. I will also add images of the finished ones.
