Absolutely love it Michael. Victorian/Edwardian scene that sets the mind and imagination at work. All so beautifully caught. Lovely work. Hat off to you.

A cracker, Michael. Very evocative of the Holmesian era, the rain, the smoke and the characters so well done.

Love the hustle and bustle of your horse and carriages in this very moody and magnificent painting.

Lots of atmosphere and interest Michael. The dark values in the foreground are very effective against the soft background. Lovely painting.
