Shirley Goodsell | Originals Gallery | Running Repairs, Grosmont Worksheds

This stationary engine is waiting for further maintenance work.

It was the only one which stayed in the same spot all the time I was working at Grosmont.

I couldn’t find its registration number. Unlike the more glamorous engines, this one seemed to have been built to be purely functional.

I wanted to capture the general muckiness in the shed and on the engine.

Oil pastels can give an immediate feeling and drama to the most mundane of situations!
