Old Barn 2 (after Melanie again)

Comments

Good move Derek, much more definition now, without being too detailed. Don't know the original but this makes for a great image.

Thanks Sharon, just felt like it. I posted the original (my version) yesterday. Melanie's can be seen in her pag, or much earlier on here.

The way you've applied the paint adds drama to this painting Derek - good work.

Cheers dennis, Andre and Frank. Melanie Cambridge posts in here but google her.

I have looked at Melanie's and I also liked it, but this sterling effort really does come of well Derek.

Thanks Alan. I have just heard back from her with nice words and she wants to post them both on her Facebook page.

You've become a master of credit cards! I was taken with the original, but I prefer yours because, to use the pun, there is a certain edge to it.

Nice one thanks Gudrun

Melanie tells me she has posted my version on her FB then her own webpages, but for the life of me I can't find it. Oh well!

re-do of earlier posting, trying to get more light in as I was impressed with the original's light in oils.

About the Artist

Derek Snowdon

Eleventyeight as my hashing pals called my new age recently, it's supposed to sound better. Trying to paint every day in acrylics using only expired credit/debit cards, and partially succeeding as they're only for me and not show these days.
