Description
I completely forgot about this, so it's a couple of months old now. Only painted it 'cus I was in a hyped up Top Gear mood and wanted to paint something loosely with a lot of browns. So combination of those factors is this, James May and Richard Hammond from an episode of Top Gear where, I believe, they go on quad bikes. Or something, it's one of those rare episodes I have seen but was ages ago and I can't quite remember.Anyway, it meant I could spend a good half hour flicking with a toothbrush and a paintbrush. Unfortunately covered half my bookcase as well...sorry James Herriot in particular.
Anyway, I don't really like it but it was quite quick and am uploading for three reasons...
a, haven't uploaded anything for a while,
b, quite like Richard's jumper amd the brown flicks on James's jumper and
c, this Wednesday BBC2 8:00, Polar Expedition!
Can't wait...and then after that they're showing 'Heroes' which I will finally be able to see! Anyway, 'tis oil on canvas panel and 254mm x 203 (10 in x 8 in).
Enjoy!

Its so surreal, these floods! For those of us not in them it sounds like an adventure but in reality it's really not ^^ Green sludge coming out of the taps and the smell must be awful!

I like how you did the brown flecks - reminds me of the time that me and a mate made modern art by putting paint in ketchup bottles and squeezing onto canvas. i got paint on his wall though...
