And the winner is ? by Derek Snowdon

However you do it Derek i like it . There's something i cant say what but i really like this painting . It that lovely strip of light at the top, i also like the fence and all the colours grouped in the bottom corner. Yes i think it is the design i love, well done mate.

Hi Derek its me again this technique you used credit card masking tape etc i would pursue it further it gives this painting a very professional feel.

Thanks dennis. Wife not sure about the light strip but it was intended, initally there was going to a series of straight lines and then it changed.

You have a flair for this, Derek. I really like the way you did the fence.

thanks Seok, am enjoying it certainly

Great textures and lovely strong colours - love the touches of white as well which lift the whole painting.

Thank you Thea, it's either the whites or the reds I find lifting.
