Old abandoned houses in my village.

I found these old abandoned houses near where I live and they are beautiful. I love the crumbling features and the boarded up  windows give it an eerie feel to it. I used water colours for my postcard to capture the blocks of colours in the bricks. For the boarded up window I used oil pastels. I first coloured the window with grey then used black to cover the grey and using a wire I scratched into the surface to reveal the grey and to make the window seem like the paint was pealing off. I think it worked very well.
