Super realistic painting of a thumb to the left. Lovely colourful painting, especially the way you paint your trees. PS was joking about the thumb :-)

Alan, a great sense of recession down that lane. Joseph beat me to it with the "well painted thumb" comment.

Gorgeous, rich reds in those roofs - and another painting totally different in impact and even style from the last one; somebody asked a while ago if there's anything you can't paint: well - is there?

interesting you should mention the red Robert.one can see Mr Wesson.s reasoning when he chose a limited palette

sorry I was stopped by a call ,what I was saying .the red in the roof is a mix of rose madder and winsor yellow deep ,,all the greens were winsor yellow deep,,, with a blue.. ie/ cobalt. ultra /winsor blue and payne,s .. I have an idea Mr Wesson,s limited palette consisted of , ------------ winsor yellow deep and lemon yellow only . for his yellows ..because a mix of both gives a near cad yellow,,, so why have cad yellow in my palette .. thats is only my opinion , I may be totally wrong so dont take it as written in stone

The red makes an ideal colour for pantiles and red brick Alan.....I like that patch of red/warmness in the roadway too.

Delightful work Alan, loose as it is, everything that needs to be here detail wise is, great light as well

Looks like a nice blusterly day with your trees bending gently in the wind. Lovely pastoral scene.

It was the gorgeous reds and surrounds that drew me in. Lovely.

another great one Alan how we are drawn into the scene by that road leading in
