Leicester Station by Michael Edwards

Love it Michael the soft bushiness with the great coloured buildings terrific

Stunning work, Michael. Love the atmospheric feel of the piece.

Love that tree against the station Michael! A very nice scene.

Thank you all - I can see a tad more definition is called for on the telephone boxes but did enjoy painting this one.

Lovely and clean as always Michael.

You have certainly brought poetry to the painting.

I do like it - very much! Wonderful perspective and your foliage in the foreground left is wonderfully painted in a soft and loose style. One of your very best I feel.

Works very well, like the contrast between the hard edges of the station and the soft tree and clouds.

Thanks again - actually I might make it the subject of one of my poems - pity this is not really a suitable site to post it on.

Lovely painting Michael! Why couldn't you write the poem here in the comments, I would love to read it.

Might do Satu but probably too late for anyone to pick up on.

I think this deserves a poem. I really love the solidity of the building and then that gorgeous puff of green, and blue wash.

So I did find time last night to scribble out a short poem - well there was only rubbish on the tele - apart from Montalbano that is! not of great literary merit but fun nevertheless - Can't seem to post it here with the right paragraphing etc so will pop it in the forum.

Missed this painting Michael but was prompted to search it out after reading your poem in the forum. I think you may have started a new trend here! Lovely painting, lovely poem!

I found your poem Michael. It's really lovely, full of nostalgia but with a promise of hope for these modern times. Goes beautifully with the painting. Thank you for letting me know!

Read your poem first Michael. Love both the pic and the poem. You might just have started a trend.
