I like the meandering Thames Alan.

I can hear eastenders wonderful Alan

I like it a lot, but maybe boat skippers/rowers etc don't like that sharp right..or left..turn

Good use of time on a wet day and you have caught that feeling in this work.

Nice one - great use of the foreground uprights which make it

You have caught very well the atmosphere, Alan. I like much the touch of light on water in the background and the sky.

Well you achieved what you set out to. A great sense of atmosphere , carries the the painting through its simplicity of shapes and colours. A nice brooding scene well painted as usual.

Great freshness and I love the daubs of yellow and blue. Imaginative painting

Thanks all once again, appreciated as always. That's how the river looked Derek, and I did think about a few boats and things but decided to keep it uncluttered, not wanting to spoil the S shape of the river, which is an integral part of the overall scene. Thanks for your observations, always welcome of course.

yes you have captured the atmosphere Alan very well.nice loose style well done David Harrison

Gosh Alan. This one takes you a journey…..your eye can't' help but follow the meandering river. Lovely.

Wonderfully simplistic buildings and bags of atmosphere Alan.

Fair enough Alan.

Love how the river takes you on a journey through the city Alan and lovely harmony to your chosen palette.

Love the detail in this, Alan and it is also very atmosppheric cityscape.

15 x 11in mixed media, usual MO, painted in the studio Tuesday, too wet to venture out. A very loose work with an attempt to capture the general atmosphere of the scene, based roughly on an actual scene.
