Back to Black...

A visit in the company of A to the old haunt of Cheltenham brought a find, not of double black lines but, rather, an interesting variation on the subject of black overpainted road markings upon the tarmac surface, including something of a diamond grid pattern & some text, well worth photographically documenting for posterity.


We also found quite a striking ‘still life’ composition on another stretch of residential road & kerbside (in fact just along the way from in front of the house & flat in which I once lived & painted), of a discarded disposable cigarette lighter, orange clad, juxtaposed with a pair of painted stripes of road markings upon the textured ground of the tarmac.
