asphalt (n.) early 14c., "hard, resinous mineral pitch found originally in Biblical lands," from Late Latin asphaltum, from Greek asphaltos "asphalt, bitumen," www.etymonline.com/word/asphalt. Today I painted this scene from some weeks ago. Earlier, I was lucky enough to be shown round the inside of the offices and vast refrigeration storage area by Sam, the project manager. I was pleased that prints of two of my paintings (below) were displayed in their offices. Before long, it may be possible to hold an exhibition to raise funds for the Kings Arms Project. |
