Super sumptuous shadows - I like it

It's superb, Fred. You've captured a lot of the atmosphere and charm of the place.

One has to love your work Fred lovely painting

I think it's a little nicer, Fred, its has a brightness about it the first one doesn't have, that's only my opinion, tho'... Its a lovely piece of work.

Thank you all very much. Not as bad as I thought it was then. We all get doubts don't we.

Works very well Fred, has that Italian feel to it.

I don't agree that it isn't as successful as last time - I love this one with it's lovely mauve shadows and sunny feel. Lovely perspective as well with that curving street which draws the eye in to the painting.

Thank you Stephen and Thea. Funny how we all have perceptions of our own work and then you read other peoples comments and you think you must have done something right! Feels good starting my next painting.

Lovely scene Fred, so summery with those lovely yellows.

Made a mistake about the location, it is actually Assisi !

This is the junction of the street in the last painting. Not as successful this time.
