Late in the day by Dennis Roberts

We love you creating landscapes as well Dennis. Your landscapes are always wonderful to see, I could look at them all day.

I love puddles in landscapes - a little touch of light. We’re lucky to be still able to enjoy creating!

And we never stop learning!

A lovely, claggy country path, to be traversed in wellies... I'm very interested that you've just invented this, out of the store of your memory, as it were. I do get tired of the "where's that, then?" question, and tend to make up an answer if in fact it's of absolutely nowhere; because you're aiming, surely, for a painting that COULD be just anywhere: not attempting to be some kind of recording angel: I've never yet produced a painting I was happy with by sticking rigidly to every contour and shape and detail. Making it up is so much more fun.... other opinions are available; but I love your moody landscapes, which show so much more reality than the brightly prettified.

Thank you Fiona Marjorie and Robert , I am very grateful for your comments.

I am pleased with this because it's totally invented with no reference. It took me around 20 years before I could create any original paintings of quality and always needed reference, now I'm 78 and I still love creating landscapes .
