Fantastic picture. Especially love the sky, but also everything else as well.

Super work once again Jem and buildings to boot! Brings back memories of working for a few months in Bristol, I used to walk out to Clifton sometimes, lovely area.

Another "Good 'un" Jen, and I like that you are not scared of using darks.

This is a plein air painting, half imperial size as normal. Quite unusual for me in that it features buildings! For one reason and another I didn't have many chances to get out and paint in 2014. It was a frustrating year, and this is one of just a few plein air paintings I managed. This year (unless the weather is continually atrocious - not wanting to tempt fate...) I should get a lot more done.
