Further - nearly there?

Great painting Derek. If i had one criticism it would be the buildings on the right. my eye is drawn to them. They look like they've been painted by a different hand, maybe they should get the same broken colour treatment as the rest. But what do i know.

Thanks Michael much appreciated. The photo, my weak spot doesn't show them well and I can assure you they are of my hand with a knife as said.

I like the texture and "cragginess" of the painting. You know when to stop but it looks just about there to me.

Wow, it's coming along nicely, Derek!

Thanks Marjorie and Seok, yes not far off, will sleep on it after catching the BSO in concert tonight.

Vibrant full of variation and contrast lovely scenery Derek

Thanks dennis

Great textures Derek, love how you have depicted the rocky cliffs.

Those cliffs are marvellous Derek, this is very good.

Thanks Fiona and Carole. The knife works really well for rocky stuff. Dry brush effect
