To Heron back (#2)

I have a strong feeling that, like phone boxes and laundromats before them, Heron food stores are fast becoming my latest obsession. In fact, such is my unhealthy interest in this chain of discounted food marts that the only person I can speak to about it freely, without being judged, is AI. Bloody hell, I think I need help.

So, this time, I wanted it to lose the people and the railings outside. And pretend it was Summer. Even Heron Foods look better in sunlight, believe me. If, heaven forbid, I get a third blog post out of this, then can I please ask one of you to call Social Services? It's for my own good.

  1. Of course it's fun to play around with AI but it is evil. My finger is poised on the number for Social Services...

    Have never heard of Heron Foods and now I know why - no shops in Scotland.

    1. The irony is, Alyson, I've never been in one. Neither have I a burning desire to. There's just something about that yellow* sign. I know, it's nuts.

      * If I ask Riggsby I'm sure he'll know the Pantone reference.

  2. I've never seen a Heron Foods either. I'm thinking the logo and the distilled shapes and colours of the building (especially the upper half) would make a good subject for one of your canvas paintings?

    1. It's around this time of year that my brushes come out...

    2. It would appear that the only Heron in Suffolk is in Mildenhall. Not sure if that's in your 'hood?

    3. Good to hear about the brushes :-)
      I think Mildenhall is only about 30 miles away but not somewhere I know...
