It’s been sped up and is just over 5 minutes long, the actual painting took around 8-9 hours in total. I used a limited palette to paint this, quite a fun experiment in colour. It’s accompanied by a song by Stuart Townend, one of Charlies favourites, sang at the wedding so it seemed quite apt for this clip.
