Thank you all.

It's clear a lot of time and trouble has gone into this. I like it a lot. Weren't you even slightly tempted to hide a ghostly image amongst all those branches?

38 hours!! No you're not mad, but very talented and dedicated. I don't think you needed to mention the ghost, I would have imagined one anyway! Great painting.

Fantastic shapes and tones...... lovely and I admire your patience.

Think you must have the patience of a saint to produce such a fine detailed painting as this one Denise and what a really good composition and tones you have introduced , another fine painting for your portfolio.

Wow! I'm not surprised how long this took but it was so well worth the time, superb!

You're a master of tonal work, Denise! And of patience! But well worth the effort indeed - the result is fabulous!

This pen and ink painting was completed in June last year. It is A4 size and took an unblievable amount of time to complete - I think it was somewhere in the region of 38 hours. I know I am mad !! It is of a stretch of road in County Antrim known locally as 'The Dark Hedges' and reputedly haunted by a lady that hovers over the road.
