Fabulous sky, Graham - looks a bit as though the Northern Lights were visiting!

Yes a great sky Graham, takes a bit of courage to be so bold. Quite different from your normal style but it's good to experiment.

I agree with Jane and Stephen, this is sooo atmospheric, Graham. I also love the composition with a lot of depth in it because of the details in the foreground.

Great interpretation Graham - like the pallette

Wow what a sky! Bags of atmoshere Graham.

Catching up on the gallery today. It was a lovely surprise to meet you yesterday Graham and to see your watercolours in the "flesh". To anybody who reads this Grahams paintings are great on the screen but are even better seen live. Recognised this one instantly as Black Rock Cottage, you've captured the bleakness of Rannoch Moor expertly with your palette and that atmospheric sky.

I'd love to do an exercise and come up with this, Graham! It is stunning! Love the angry sky and the red door - this departure from your usual palette is different but equally full of impact.

Many thanks Jane, Stephen, Mia,Michael,Fiona Val and Seok for your very kind comments on this painting, it is really appreciated when you have all taken the time to have a look and comment, and I am glad you all think the sky has worked for this particular piece.I would also say Val that like you it was such a very pleasant surprise to meet you at the gallery exhibition and likewise I also enjoyed viewing some of your super labdscape paintings and many flower studies on view, which were all so well painted in watercolour and pastel.

Graham I recognised this beautiful painting as yours immediately ! I love the dramatic sky and the red door brings the whole painting to life. Brilliant.

Thanks Denise for looking at this watercolour, always appreciated by myself when other artists take the time to comment, and glad you liked the red door, afraid it's becoming a bit of a signature of mine in my various paintings with building in them.

Brillian sky, and lovely tones. A spot of red lifts it wonderfully.
