Farmyard Scene

I think it's very believable, Denis, and you've really caught the movement and atmosphere perfectly. Excellent details btw, like the barrow and things leaning against the wall. Brian

I think You've already got the hang of it - the bleed with the washes works so well leaving the central cottage in full sunlight

Love the bleeding technique...if you'll pardon the expression! i use it too. Lovely work...a truly English village scene...very believable. Well once again Denis.
