The East Coast, Aberdeenshire

Comments

Part of it reminds me of a railway poster John - is it the colours or a slightly graphic look? I do like it, it’s “ fresh”.

Terrific sky John, and an expansive scene very well painted. For someone not keen on acrylics you have cracked it here I think!

Looks idyllic and very nicely captured!

I like this a lot John, it's a beauty. Acrylics definitely have a use and advantage although I much prefer oils

It’s such a pleasure to receive such lovely comments, thank you Marjorie, Spencer, Tessa, Sarah and Heather 🤗😎🤗

Love your colours, think it works very well, and it's good to play around with different media every now and then

Love that lively sky and how you have painted it John.

Powerful and bold John!

Lovely depth. The acrylics seems to be working well!

I’m an oil painter and a watercolour painter and I’m usually outrageously rude about acrylic- today I had a play about and have to say there is something nice about it… so, this is a small island off the Scottish coast… done in … ahem… acrylic on linen, alla prima and I’ve used acrylic markers in places…they’re fun too…
