'Farm House, Silsden in the Dale'

The light is glorious and that sky!

Beautiful work

A real impression of sunshine and showers.

This is lovely Colin

Bright and fresh looking, has that after rain look, where everything seems greener.

A lovely piece, full of atmosphere and light.

A very effective painting, especially the treatment of the foreground field.

Thank you all. It was painted from a sketch and photo take onsite but it was the sky I could see from my studio window that reminded me of that day in Silsden. Then the atmosphere and feel of that day came flooding back. I tried to put down that memory onto watercolour paper.

Lovely loose watercolour, you seem to be painting in a bolder way recently.

Yes Stephen my style has changed a lot over the years. As one artist (James Fletcher-Watson) told me 'why use two brush strokes when one will do'. I'm trying hard to put that theory into action.
