Mevagissey Houses

Great colours - love the people

Hi Malcolm, Great gallery by the way. I was compelled to comment on some of the Mevagissey pictures - I also love the place; got to say you are a brave man indeed. I was always told never paint a building straight from the front as there is no depth (well that's what the books say!), but the combination of colours you have used, the aerial perspective and the shading all add to the relief of the picture, giving a full 3 dimensional image, I think your approach in this matter is fantastic. These are great, and its good to see that some rules are there to be broken.
