A slightly unusual view of the Tyne Bridge, looking across to the Castle Keep where Newcastle got it's name from the new castle which William the Conqueror's son Robert Curthose built in 1080. It was originally a motte and bailey but was rebuilt in stone during the reign of Henry II, between 1168 and 1178.
I decided to keep the bridge fairly simple as it is a frame for the buildings below and I'm pleased with the end result.
When I've painted in the past, my husband always said it would be interesting to document the progress of the work. So for this one I have.
Sorry folks, this one's been sold but there will be more Newcastle views coming soon!
ReplyDeleteany more in this style of the bridge and what would be thr price . also is it poss to get a print of this cheers
DeleteHi Christine,
DeleteThanks for your enquiry. You can have a print from this. I do an 8"x6" with a white border on a 10"x8" paper so it fits a 10x8 frame, which is £12 or you can have it in a cream mount which fits a 12"x10" frame, which is £18. P+P in the UK is £4. You can visit my Etsy store to see an example of a print with the border. https://www.etsy.com/uk/listing/164316320/jug-of-flowers-print-from-an-original
If you'd like an original, I can paint one for £30 of the same scene or a different one. Was it the composition that you liked on this one?

I look forward to hearing from you soon,
Gillian.
