Remembering Jeffrey Smart

Finally unpacked the paintings I posted back from Adelaide.

Jeffrey Smart fans might recognise this place… In memory. Oil on panel, small plein air study. It was almost sunset and I was huddled into the lee of a building trying to stay out of the wind. Imagine hanging onto a tripod paint box, bag, wet panel and hat AND make fair use of a brush with strong gusts grabbing at everything. Then a car load of young ‘uns drives past & one of them leaned out the window and yells “paint big”…
