On the Tor

Nice one Derek! a really powerful painting and I love the atmospheric background.

Wonderful card work Derek, interesting subject.

A very strong and "impact" painting Derek. Good mix of subtle colours on the rocks

This has drama. I like it a lot.

Thanks Alan, Carole, Pat and Karin. The subject made itself workable, those big rocks and boulder shapes.

I'm not very good at expressing my self in artist speak but I can just feel the wind whipping through me leaving me breathless. Like Alan said below very atmospheric

It's been said Derek, dramatic, atmospheric, love it!

Love this picture, Derek

Thanks Helen, Christine and Teddi<br />I hate artist speak so not good at it either Helen, don&#39;t worry and what you said fitted nicely.

Great contrast Derek; smooth distant sky and lots of rugged, textured rocks in the foreground. You manage that card superbly Derek!

Thank you Fiona, it&#39;s all about I can do well, the control and dexterity are rubbish now and I feel so clumsy

Very authentic looking rocks - great texture and really good colours.

Cheers Thea, colour mixing comes good on the cards for me.

Love it. PS don&#39;t get me started on &#39;artspeak&#39;.

Well it&#39;s far from looking clumsy Derek. Keep doing what you&#39;re doing.......you enjoy the doing part and we&#39;ll keep on enjoying the looking part!

Thanks Fiona
