A real success

Beautiful painting. The figures give a great sense of scale.

1. Kyrle this is very interesting. Shades of Turner what with the composition, very high arches, tiny figures in foreground.  But lovely colours.  I feel I should see a hare on railway line if I look hard enough.  Well done on your experimentations.  They certainly achieved great results.  Looking forward to more.

Thanks Norah you're too kind., I like the result because it is close to the way I like to paint, loose and expressively, I'm looking forward to seeing what happens when I varnish it, but it won't photograph well then, c'est la vie !

It's a bit starved of paint, more medium, better ground , better brushes, will all help (I hope !). A very nice day out though, thanks Sean. Pity we missed you.

You use colour so beautifully Kyrle regardless of medium, and you caotured Sally so well too. A very painterly result with a new medium
