Excellent painting John , Edinburgh at it's best.

This is a lovely wet street scene full of atmosphere and great figure work

Thank you so much Stephen, I’m always glad to hear from you 🙏🏼

Many thanks for such kind words Heather 😎😎😎

I like everything about this - the composition, the way you've applied the paint and the colour contrast between the city and the figures.

Bobbie! You have just put a big smile on my face 😊🙏🏼

Interesting work and architecture make this a super painting John. I haven't heard the term 'closet Scot' before

Thanks so much Frank, glad you like it. I lived in Scotland for a few years so my heart will always feel connected to it 😎

What a lovely composition John and it’s so Edinburgh! Love that pop of blue.

Love the way you’ve avoided cliche with the use of colour for the shoppers, but so well balanced against the subdued tone overall
