Small progress on my painting. I am calling it "Mas Alpilles".
A mas is the local name for farmhouse. In this case it is the main house of a winery/vineyard (colours are not quite right):

One of my first paintings in more than 10 years - a repaint of an older painting. Still ongoing. I put some oils over the oil pastels used for the the sketch.
Still several sessions to go. I only manage 1 hour+ per day, but it's a start...

I decided to do a repaint of an old painting I was not quite satisfied with. I sketched it out in charcoal and oil pastels on top of an old painting covered in red as a background:

And this is the one I am working on: 80 x 60 cm
