Hope he didn't scatter too much dust over your painting David. I like this and you have depicted that dust very well.

I want nothing more than to walk along the shaded tree line, when looking into this painting David. The light and shade coming through the trees onto the grassy headland is brilliant, as is the dust cloud around the tractor wheels. It's a beautiful painting!

Stunning painting David, perfect in every respect.

This is really very well painted David, You've captured that coolness in the shadows very well. The blue in the dark brown works beautifully. The division in the light area from the dark areas really captures the intensity of the bright day. It is tonal values that make for a really good painting and this is a fine example. Anyway that farmer certainly know his onions.

oil on board 32" x 26" .I was painting this field on the spot early one morning and a tractor came over the horizon .He was speeding up and down the field with a trail of dust behind .Eventually he stopped close to me to see what I was painting .we had a chat he told me the field is 100 acres and part of a 10,000 estate owned by the Guiness family .The crop he was tending to is onions it was a lovely warm morning, he said he really enjoyed his work and wished me luck with the picture and he was on his way and quickly disappeared again over the horizon.
