Loose + clean washes + good use of shadows = great work Michael!

I do. I have lost count now of your villages. Many more to go?

Excellent work, Michael, fresh and atmospheric.

A lovely scene, painted in your signature clear and fresh tones.

Like it a lot, really conveys the peace and quiet, light and shade of these places. I was out painting in a graveyard today too, they are one of my favorite subjects to sit and paint (great shapes, no bystanders!). Not as ghoulish as it sounds. Good subject for a series perhaps ?

Thank you all - but as always I can see several faults which i may (or may not ) address. Gudren - just had a count and have painted about 50 and there are still about 50 to go if I an to paint them all - that is the Harborough district which lies in the south of the county.
