Agapanthus border, Howick Hall

Comments

Can't believe Northumberland had some decent weather for you to paint outside Marjorie. A lovely composition. The canvas sheet gives a great finish.

Not complaining about this summer at all Adele. But when every day is a holiday you can take every advantage of good weather. Ta for the comment.

Love the blend of colour in the trees Marjorie and a lovely sense of depth.

Beautiful colours, Marjorie, and a very effective sense of distance.... impressive that you painted this en plein air!

A really lovely painting Marjorie, the blue of the agapanthus is beautiful.

It mainly rained the few times I've visited Northumberland :( Nice to see it in the sunshine in this cracking painting of yours.
