Taking a Break

That's a pleasant scene and very nicely done Barry. Good work.

I thin this is great. I can feel the heat on my back. Love it.

A lovely warm scene, well painted, Barry

The study itself is a pleasure to look at Barry, it has a warmth about it.

That’s terrific Barry. Even as a sketch that would look good on any wall.

Beautiful scene and light, Barry.

More than just a sketch I think. The shadows bring out the sunshine.

Wonderful feeling of warm light in this scene Barry.

I tend to agree with you Barry, however, treat it as a prelim sketch. It has potential in bucket loads. I'm not so sure about the figure in the foreground, a bit prominent but does need a little something there to address the balance.

Like the perspective you’ve created through your figures Barry.

Great shadows and warm feel to this piece Barry.

Thank you all I am very pleased that the warmth has shown through.

Thanks Alan, I think the figure will work if I soften it of as it has too many hard edges. Also think I could lose the figure in blue and put more emphasis on the seated figure.
