Gate on a walk

Gate on a walk

You have really made something of this gate. Most people would have just walked by, but your keen eye has spotted a great subject for a painting. The gate looks nicely rusted and a bit bent so has lots of character. I do like your rocks as well.

I keep returning to this as I browse through yes I agree with Thea it's the gate it draws you in to the whole painting the hook that draws you in as what a good quality painting should do .

Thanks Thea and Philip, apologies for not getting back but computer glitch here for a while.

An old gate with some interesting boulders caught my eye when walking and I sketched it then worked it to this.

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.
