"Bookies"

8 x 16"

oil on masonite

sold

I mentioned that I was working on a larger piece with the same woman as in the small painting "Rummaging" - thought you'd like to see it as well. It was done for my upcoming gallery show. It may be hard to see, but I had a lot of fun with the book covers in the foreground.

Beautiful piece. Especially like how you surrounded the figures with colour to help them stand out.

Yup, very nice painting. You've taken a simple everday scene in a bookstore that one wouldn't otherwise pay attention to and made it interesting. Nice job!

Rubbish!!!! Not your painting -- but the fact that I wanted to buy it and it's already sold! :( Do more bookies!
