February

Back to Cardiff with a fresh supply of paint but no Manet this trip. Ticket sales went wild  and it will be March before we get to see it. Meanwhile on the Underground I keep seeing the poster advertising the exhibition and each time I am struck by his use of black - bringing the portrait to life and adding light and vibrancy to the painting. I used black for years until I was advised by a well known painter some time ago not to. I'm excited about seeing it on my palette again.
