Commercial Street, Aberdare


Looking up from street level there are still a few buildings in Aberdare that have probably changed little from Victorian times. This is one of them, in Commercial Street with its gothic windows, elaborate render details and large oriel windows. In trying to illustrate this building I am trying out watercolour washes with details in ink though I think collage would be more defined.
