Nicely done Michael lovely work

Lovely scenery with beautiful light Michael.

Thanks both for kindness.

Well Michael, you're into trad materials now and what a great job you've made of this, the recession has worked well. Did you use palette knife for some parts?

Thanks Marjorie. I just used a brush. I was re-using the canvas which had thick paint on it. I sanded it down and put a base colour on but some of the lumpy bits remained. So, it looks like I used a knife. Thanks for encouragement.

Beautiful painting Michael, lovely harmonious colours and atmosphere.

I'm very grateful Cesare. I'm following you portraits as you do them and each time I'm impressed.

I am really enjoying these spring colour paintings, both digital and acrylic. More please.

Thanks Gudrun. I will.
