Winter in Kettlewell by Alan Goodall

Nice one Alan, I'm thinking of having a go at a wintry xmas scene, either from a photograph or some contrived offering? Can I pinch one of your cottages ? :-)

Beautifully painted, with superb light and atmosphere.

this is so beautiful Alan :-)

Anothe super addition to your fine gallery of watercolours Alan.

You've even got the yellow touches of sand in the snow .... incredible. Very different style and technique to my other favourite Alan, who is posting again, but that shows the variety of effects that watercolour can achieve in experienced hands. As one who's still at the foothills of painting in watercolour, I can only salute both of you up there on the summit.

First time I have seen your work on the POL, as I only started posting in Aug-Sept, but have viewed your work and Webb site via the SAA. Absolutely love your style and portfolio, as I paint in a similar style. As Robert said above, we can only salute you, but one day my aim is to be standing next to you. Really look forward to seeing your future work.

yellow - those pesky cats & dogs :-)

Beautifully composed, lovely sky, trees and buildings, the whole thing works really well

Superb watercolour Alan!

Lovely work Alan, fresh with detail and such confident work.

Great work with lots of detail to look at.

Very skilful and evocative. The red-clad walker beckons the eye onward down the lane: could there be a pub round that bend?

Just lovely

Many thanks everyone for your most kind comments which are very much appreciated. For anyone wishing to spend a few days painting and sketching in the Yorkshire Dales, then Kettlewell makes a great base to stay and provides wonderful painting subjects without travelling long distances. Happy painting! Alan Goodall

lovely painting Alan

Have only just come across your work and like it very much. This is what watercolour painting is all about. Brilliant.
