@JANUSZCZAK This sounds like a false economy, but I found the paints with 100%pigment load (which are even more expensive) went allot further when mixed. I painted an entire show with a handfull of old Holland tubes as the pigments were so much stronger. Still a big initial outlay though

@warrenellis13 Great show remember it well!

@hughmendes You left a marker in time Hugh

[Martin Brown @mrtnbrwn]

Obvious meanings implied, (and concealed) woman reading a letter, could be Cupid's arrow perhaps? Wonder who painted over this implied meaning and why

[Martin Brown @mrtnbrwn]

Followed this story from earlier, wonder if I preferred the covered version, still very interesting to see some "new" Vermeer painting

First full image of ‘new’ Vermeer with uncovered Cupid released by Dresden museum: https://t.co/J8zZBsgmxW

[Martin Brown @mrtnbrwn]

It is intriguing to see! Getting used to seeing the revealed image, interestingly I find it hard to "un-see" this painting now, and remember as before. Really interesting.
I like this version as well

One of my paintings has appeared on @GrimArtGroup

Kentish Town Road, Intersection by Martin Brown b.1971

[Martin Brown @mrtnbrwn]

@GrimArtGroup This is one of my paintings! Painted it in 2016. It was exhibited in Paris " DISPLACEMENT - Le Pavé d'Orsay" https://t.co/DnvwTNbmGR Also featured on the cover of the KentishTowner December issue of that year @kentishtowner https://t.co/ajVx0lJJHF

[Martin Brown @mrtnbrwn]

@kitkant @GrimArtGroup This was really interesting! I'm glad you like my painting! You can see the perspective on the painting is very differnt to the photograph

[Martin Brown @mrtnbrwn]

@kitkant @GrimArtGroup You can see the spacing, scale and perspective are different in the transition, to the painting that's because elements where moved and shifted when I painted the final composition, I used several differnt sources, using drawings and photographs gained from different perspectives
