Boys And Their Toys.

This painting is the subject of yet another internet find.

 

The photo of Prince's Quay in the 1920's, is part of the collection hosted by The Glasgow Story.

 

After permission to use it was obtained, further research was required as the photo was very small, but bit by bit clarity of the subject was determined.

 

Due to the constraints of the canvas size some details were omitted and some repositioned to fit into the "picture" Being from the 1920's the original photo was black and white.

 

I chose to portray the bulk of the scene in sepia with just some of the subjects in colour.
