Good painting David. Chilling subject

Very nice David.

Thank you Martin an PogArt for your comments.

I must admit David I sat a little more uncomfortable when I first read the title. But you can't hide history though many would like to rewrite it. Certainly another excellent piece of work that you always capture so well. Happy New Year

Thank you for your comment Chris - I must admit I agree with your comments but as you say we cannot rewrite history.

You’ve caught the decay and history of the buildings David very well.

Thank you Tessa for your kind comment.

This certainly has a macabre atmosphere that you have captured so well David.

Thank you, Carole, for your kind comment - I was trying to give the whole painting a dark atmosphere.

Lovely work David Happy new year 🎉

Thank you Faye! Happy New Year to you and your family, too! Hope you are all now settled in your new home.

This is a great painting. You’ve really captured the despondency and age of the building.

Thank you for your kind comment, Spencer!
