Why not, the more the merrier, another good painting Anthony

I think I would have hidden one of the Ghosts characters in there, but still a super painting without.

The house is so realistic I thought it was a photograph at first glance.

I have never watched the programme, though have laughed at the ads! This is bizarre and very amusing, and rather a good painting.

Wonderful Anthony, especially the house set against that magnificent sky.

A superb painting full of excellent detail.

Thank you everyone. I painted the house, then I thought it needed figures (visitors) as a distraction... then I went a bit overboard.

The people add real life to this.

It may have taken too long to finish, but it was worth it; very entertaining and amusing.

West Horsley House last Spring; Oil on board. Perhaps better known as 'Button House' in from 'Ghosts'. I have rather over-worked this (it took too long to finish); perhaps too much narrative for the size/scale of the painting. Many of those people were visiting the house on the day, I just put them into the composition doing silly things. Perhaps I'll grow to like it in time.....
