Leicestershire Villages, Wigston by Michael Edwards

Very nice Michael I like the way you paint. Going great

A beautiful watercolour Michael.

I like this Michael, good composition and the buildings are very well handled. The island with the tree in the road does block things somewhat. But what can you do if that's how the village is?

Nice contrasts in this one Michael.

Thanks all - Stephen, yes it is difficult trying to find a good composition- I am afraid too much innovation is not an option as these works are aimed at potential purchasers who will recognise or have some association with the scene and will expect it to be reasonably accurate. I try to work as loose as I can without compromising too much the actual location - sometimes a difficult tightrope.

Ah, accuracy? I missed out a row of three telephone boxes from a Manchester street scene Michael, fortunately no one asked me where they'd gone! Lovely watercolour here and do like it!

Yes I like it, lovely quite village scene as always beautiful Michael.

Always your forte, Michael. Love the simple elegance and quiet tranquility of this piece.

Great composition. a lovely tranquil quality to it.
