Day 2

April 4, 2007 by Nicholas Hedges

With the help of my brother, I managed to get some of my stuff down to OVADA and began to prime the three red deckchairs. By the end of the day, I’d managed to get most of the frames done but the canvas itself is quite cheap, and the gesso not so easily applied. It maybe that I have to buy some proper canvas and use that instead but I shall see how I get on tomorrow.

As well as working inside the studio, I wandered around the market in Gloucester Green and took a few photos.

And some when the market began to close…

I also recorded around 10 minutes of sound; the shouts of the vendors, fragments of conversations etc.

MP3 of market sounds
