Disused Cinema

I've always had a fascination for old cinema buildings, and the mystery of those abandoned which become decaying hulks. I was aware of the attempts to re-vitalise the former Odeon in St.Albans and was lucky enough to take some i-phone "snaps" on an open day there. I converted these images into paintings using modelling compound, cardboard and acrylic paint. I love the aesthetic of the shapes and colours and textures on show with the combination of old building, even older building, signage, decay and humans!
