These are old images I painted in 1997 as part of a school project whilst at John Moore's University - Liverpool school of art. They were painted with inks, bleach & quink on A4 cartridge paper as a study of textures and decay.
Liverpool was full of old buildings, even in the centre of the city. Most of the doors I painted all came from the same street. Some were old ware house entrances and others were an ancient and long forgotten theatre, the back entrance to a night club and a boarded up old house due for demolition.

Wow! This entire series is impressive. The first thing that draws me is the texture, particularly of the bricks and the woodgrain, and then I noticed all of the lighting detail.
The ones that I'm most drawn to are #1, #4, and #7, but they're all beautiful.
Thanks. I've always wanted to do a similar series of pictures devoted to decayed vehicles and machines but never gotten around to it.
I'll be adding more images and links to this blog as I go along.
All these pics are really neat !!!
Thanks Andrew
