This is lovely, the cathedral stands very proud, Michael

Time well spent Michael, it's lovely, congratulations!

Thank you Pat and Christine - because I was short of time I'm afraid this is not a very good photo but it'll have to do.

Interesting Michael, and a fabulous Cathedral to get your head round. lots of detail too. Very well constructed painting and of course done under a bit of pressure.

Wow this is beautiful and amazing Michael, I love it :)

Great story Michael love to hear things like this and a lovely painting

Thanks Alan, Helen, Maria, Dennis and Gudren. It was a bit of fun despite the restraints as well as being a challenge. I worked from photos provided and also looked up images on Google Images but they weren't all that helpful.

Great job you have made of it Michael. At first I thought it was Southwell Minster, Nottinghamshire, near where I lived.

ps, Until I spotted the palm trees that is!

I've been there, Michael, and you did an excellent job! It certainly captures both the image and the atmosphere. I'll bet he was pleased.

His Emminence Charles Cardinal Bo from Burma has just visited this country and celebrated his 50th birthday whilst here. I was asked to do a watercolour for him of his Cathedral in just a couple days and with pretty awful source material and this is what I came up with. The upshot was that my wife and I were invited to attend the ce;ebrations and meet him - a lovely gentle humble man - anyway that's why I've not been active on POL for the last week.
