Dusk in Montmatre by Denise Butler

Beautiful Denise

stunning - I haven't seen your gallery before - it is just stunning from start to finish - ending with number 25 which is wonderful, but I thought that about the children in the park in the snow and ..about all of them really. Beautiful

Wow such a lot of work has gone into this, well done.

Drawing the road must have been a relief..... incredible work in this, and yet, as with all of your paintings and drawings, it doesn't look cluttered or over-worked: I think it's important to remind people that work doesn't have to be loose, and that detail is not anathema.

I never cease to be ahazes at the setail in your lovely pictures and this is no exception. out of interest how do you frame them Denise?

Another stunning piece Denise, superb drawing and composition again.

A lovely, lovely drawing Denise. I have walked on those back streets many many times and you have captured even the feeling there. Well done! Stunning gallery all in all.

I love your detail and you have captured the place so well here. Super composition with trees on one side and houses on the other.

Super drawing and perspecitive, Denise. I always love the way you put the little touches of colour here and there. Stunning work!

Love the contrast of the houses and trees on either side of the street. Beautifully drawn nd composed as usual, Denise.

Thank you all so much for your very kind words. Robert it was so nice of you to say it was not over- worked because it is something I worry about , I never want to overdo it but sometimes it is hard to draw the line with this type of work(pardon the pun!). Michael I don't always frame them all, but when I do , I usually have them professionally framed with a simple off white mount and matt,black cushioned frame. I find this one usually works the best with the black ink. At the moment I am trying to get all of my work in some type of frame as I am holding my first exhibition with 2 other artists at the end of April. I have used ones ordered online but was not too impressed as the 'glass' was actually acrylic which I did not like at all. A couple of shop bought ones have been ok but really prefer the professional frames the most, but obviously they cost much more.
