Lovely work once again Dermot. I've noticed a lot of paintings in galleries recently, featuring brolleys, perhaps it's our British obsession with the weather?

Great figures and love the glowing orange umbrella.

It's the way you paint em Dermot excellent sir

Very effective Dermot, like the colours, better than red which is a bit of a cliché for these pictures.

Love the large splash of orange and the general theme Dermot.

Jack Vetriano has a lot to answer for Dermot where umbrellas are concerned. (-: Nice job with the contrasts and reflections in the rain.

This is great Dermot, the umbrella catches the eye and the red in the distance draws the viewer in. Like the reflections too.

I am not surprised buddy. Lovely piece

Easy to see why they're so popular Dermot

I can see the appeal of rain in Ireland as it's part of everyday life. Apart from that reflections are very eye-catching when painted well which you did here. I really like the 2 figures with the orange umbrella.

This a great painting, Dermot. I just love the orange umbrella.

Nice work Dermot, love the wet effect you manage to obtain

wonderful mastery of the medium as usual Dermot.

Great work Demot

Unsurprisingly popular!

The orange umbrella against the blue hues makes it eye catching and a nice change from red umbrellas that are usually used in paintings. Very effective.

I paint a lot of these as they're very popular over here , beach scenes and paintings with umbrellas are what the public over here seem to like the best . I've hung paintings for years now all around Dublin and I've painted every sort of subject but these two types of subject seem to be the most popular by a country mile
