Barlaston Hall


Barlaston Hall - Staffordshire, UK


A quirky painting of Barlaston Hall. I like the rich colours and the wobbly shape. I was trying out the same style as the Gladstone Pottery Museum.

Gladstone Pottery Museum, Longton, Stoke on Trent.

This is a painting of Gladstone Pottery Museum in Stoke on Trent painted with acrylics on canvas that I did, not too long ago. Imagine it without the people (the image has changed since I painted it). A colleague of mine who is now a full time artist, Laura Zerebski does the most brilliant, vibrant of paintings of places in British Columbia. I thought I would try and produce something similar but in my style of painting. I also wanted to practice and copy other painters since this is the best way to learn and develop your own style.
