At Cambridge Station *3 11" x 10" Oil




What an adventure to jump on a train with your bike, anywhere you fancied, and spend the day exploring somewhere new! I bet this girl was on her way home from work though!

It has been pointed out to me that I should get permission from people to paint them. I take lots of random shots and then if any little vignette captures my attention, such as this one, I paint it. Difficult to ask permission. It is not my intention to embarrass or offend, so if any one of my paintings does so, then please let me know and I will stop publishing it.

Love it, I... like many artist that paint don't get permission many of our works don't shoot for a real likeness anyway so who will know. People are in public, snap away

Nice work, love the loose brush strokes on this piece. As an ex professional photographer, I was told that no one has copyright over there face and you do not have to ask for permission to photograph or paint them, not in this country anyway can you imagine the paps and press photographers asking for it all the time....
