and different again. Certainly an impact from the monochrome rendering of this subject and the chosen angle. Like it. Stay well.

Very dramatic and from a great perspective.

Dramatic painting, Lewis - it immediately made me think of "Wuthering Heights"...

Love monochrome paintings, Lewis, this is very dramatic!

Reminded me of Wuthering Heights, Lew. Very moody and clearly windy. Super atmosphere. Bri

Thanks to everybody for your great comments. I was thinking of Wuthering Heights when I made this.

Excellent work, looks lick a Bronte looking, if there is such a word.

Ooh like this Lewis. Looks like something out of Wuthering Heights. Love the diagonal composition which adds drama to this Lewis.

A stunner Lew, a really powerful image with that unusual angle!

This put me somewhere between "Wuthering Heights" "Jane Eyre" and "The Wood gatherer"Lew. Either way, powerful and full of impact. Great work with the monochrome contrasts..

Lots of drama in this one Lewis. Hope she's not thinking of jumping of a cliff to escape Coronavirus!

Painting in a monochromatic style provides drama and it works beautifully with this painting Lewis.

Thanks again for all your very encouraging comments.

Great work Lewis, it's the viewpoint that makes it special. She's looking down and I'm looking up at her. Full of drama and tension as well.

Yes, Wuthering Heights for me. A great impression.

Drama personified, Lewis, and so very in keeping with the trials of this time.

Posted by Thalia Stones on Sat 04 Apr 14:25:11

I agree with all the other comments Lewis, it has bags of drama.

Where's Heathcliff ! Very wild image.

This is other worldly Lewis. Straight out of Wuthering Heights. Your 2 Hobbit pictures are also outstanding. Love all the shading, I think it adds a little panache. Can’t comment on some of your work that displays ‘Hang on Studio Wall’. If there is a way to comment on these postings, I’m unaware of how to do so.

Thank you Carole. You've have me stumped about not being able to comment on posts with 'Hang on studio wall.' I thought that was on all of them...I don't have a studio wall. Must be some kind of glitch.

Done a year or so ago, at my art group. The theme was 'weather'. Painted entirely in Payne's Grey with a brush. (Got to admit, it's been slightly tweaked to make it 'bluer.'

About the Artist

Self taught. Love drawing. Like to make pictures up, without using reference pics, often in cartoon style. I do other pictures where I do use reference. I'm knocking on a bit, born in 1940 in Greenwich, London. Retired, and loving it.
