Recycled


A lazy Sunday afternoon sketch of my fireplace situated in the lounge. This little beauty was salvaged from a Town House demolition in London and sits framed by a feature wall of pale Duck Egg Blue paint.

What a lovely thing! Makes my "plain Jane" brick fireplace look pretty ho-hum.

I like the blue highlights, it's a lovely drawing and a gorgeous fireplace, no wonder you were inspired to paint it!

Beautiful job on this, Anita. You have got antiques down to a fine art (pardon the pun).
