Mary Queen of Scots Tapestry paintings: Oxburgh Hall


This very large paper on canvas piece is finally finished, along with two smaller 'fragment' pieces. I am currently completing the series with a further large 'fragment' painting of hand made paper which is more of an exploratory piece as a response to the feelings evoked by the original tapestries in Oxburgh Hall, rather than a study based on the actual designs within the tapestries, which these paintings represent.
