Clouds look fine to me; a lovely sunlit scene but you've got the perspective of the windows wrong. The angle of the top of the windows should follow the same line as the top of the building. Take a ruler along both top and bottom of building to a vanishing point on the left and make the tops and bottoms of the windows go to that same point.

Hi Garry you are building a fabulously beautiful & colourful gallery here...I very much like what I see in it too...and a Greek scene too...Zante [Zakinthos]? though DH is correct I think you can get away with it as it is...the [lantern] light against a white cloud? Brilliant you have pulled it off well...though they are a bit on the heavy side...perhaps?

Diana and Phil Thanks for your constructive comments, much appreciated. I agree about the windows, a lesson learned there!

Another of my Father-in-Law's photos that inspired me to paint. This lighthouse in Xante is lived in by the guy that runs all the lighthouses on the island. Not sure I got the clouds right on this one.
