This was one of those paintings that seemed a good simple idea, but proved very frustrating. I was drawn to the ordered arrangement and diminishing size of the objects sat upon the old firebrick. A bit like the Three Bears. I started ok but then got interupted and couldnt get back into it. Then the light went and the next day I had other obligations and couldn't paint. So the paint was dry when I came back to finish it and I ended up overworking it - in every sense. Not very satisfying at all!
