Setting up the fair
Comments

Great to see a funfair and an excellent painting full of life and colour.

Colourful and lively- lovely!

Really good in every aspect Timothy

This painting is a great contrast from your other painting of the ferris wheel - the colours, time of day and atmosphere are different. I love them both and can't choose a favourite.

Excellent artwork Tim.

Thank you for your feedback. It was great to see the activity of the show-team setting up and they even apologised when they had to drive their truck away, as they were thrilled that an artist was painting them.

What a wonderful, fun and bright painting. Lovely work

You’ve captured a good atmosphere here Timothy and I love that lorry

A complex, challenging, painting achieved so beautifully Timothy. Enough detail there, without being cluttered and a well balanced composition.

Wonderful colour in this. Love it!

An oil painting that started off as a plein-air painting on the opening day of Nottingham's Goose Fair in September 2024. I finished it back in the studio.
