I really like your Thames watercolour series Alan

Thanks Heather, this one will make an oil painting at some stage!

It’s a stunner Alan , certainly will make a great oil .

Lovely work Alan.

Very intriguing and this is n outstanding scenic view of the Thames Wharf...the crane and buildings in the background!

Looking forward to your alternative oil painting when it arrives Alan.

I like the palette and the circular composition. The eye goes straight to the hut, along the jetty, up the crane and along to the distant docklands buildings, the tallest of which leads back to the hut.

Nice addition to the series!

I like much your Thames scenes, Alan!

Thanks guys… more to come no doubt!

Like this series very much.

I love these Alan, love all the age, the rusty appearance and the city in the background.

Great industrial scene Alan. As ever, I like your method of distinguishing between the foreground/background areas.

This industrial scene is first class Alan and is captured perfectly, with loose brushwork.

Like this a lot, the touch of complimentary blue is inspired !

I think we're all crying "More, more!". Really looking forward to the oils you'll base on these - and hoping the temperatures will cool a bit, allowing you to actually tackle them.... all I can do is sketch and maybe splash a bit of watercolour around.
