When all you feel are shadows, turn your face to the light by Michele Ashby

Excellent shadows and light in this Michele and I love that sweeping curve of the staircase.

Thank you so much Carole - I find this little structure spell binding each time I visit!

Superb.

Michele, Elegant, curving line, well rendered shadows and texture of the staircase:fascinating to look at and reflect upon!

Absolutely love this. It's so stylish and so well executed. Brilliant.

Fabulous Michele

The lines of the staircase are beautiful and the shadows with the patterns of the steps superb. I can appreciate why you find it fascinating. You’ve captured it so well in your painting.

Simply brilliant Michele

Thank you Tony

Thank you so much Karl!

Many thanks Julie!

Thanks Heather!

What a wonderful comment to read Christine!!

Thanks a lot Russell!

Love it, Michele! Quite novel.

Many thanks Jennifer - I love this little building so much I’ve drawn it twice before and they’ve both been bought now. One to a home in New Jersey and one sold at the RSMA!

Superb and superb gallery Michele

Thank you so much Dennis!

Really like this, a striking composition and lovely soft shadows.

As said, great curves and shading.

Incredibly well painted Michelle, and I would think such a difficult image to get right! But you’ve done it so well. You have an artist’s eye for capturing something like this and not just walking by!

Wonderful!

Thank you Jenny!!

Thank you Richard -glad you liked that curve too!!

Thank you Tessa - I certainly do love a bit of detail and was determined not to ignore the parts that were particularly challenging!
