Oh Linda this is really special! What a fabulous gift, you must have loads of patience to do all those dots, it nearly drove me nuts when I did the last challenge. Gorgeous work. Sorry if I've missed some of your work but my hubby hasn't been well and I've not done any painting for a while but I'm getting itchy fingers and will hopefully be able to do some over the weekend.

Thank you Margaret, sorry to hear about your husband, hope he's well soon, mine had an ankle op nearly four weeks ago, and it'll be almost three months before he can put any weight on it so I know what it's like, I've not had time for much posting I find dotting pictures really relaxing, dotty I know 😂

This is truly magnificent. They will be over the moon with such a delightful painting. Love the gentle washes you have applied Linda.

Amazing how dots can suggest form and look solid, this is wonderful Linda and a beautiful gesture.

Stunning, Linda. I really don't know where you find the patience. The effect is gorgeous.

Nicely done Linda. You seem to have mastered pointillism very well. Lovely result.

Wonderful Linda. You have a real flair for pointillism.

Thank you Michael, Carole and Dennis, Fiona, I love this technique for buildings,so glad I tried it in the May challenge, thank you Brian, they've already seen it and they love it, just got to frame it now, but it's a gift to them, no charge lol, thank you Carolyn, Jim and Dorothy, I really enjoy doing Pointillism and don't find it boring at all, and thank you Alan for your continued support, really appreciate it, 😀 Linda

Isn’t that delightful Linda, and I love the addiction of colour in the front wall and sky especially.

This is a special commission for my son and daughter in law for their 25th wedding anniversary in July. I've chosen pointillism for this as I really like the effect on buildings. A4 size .
