An excellent piece. Love the beautiful light and the recession of many layers in the painting.

Lovely work Mike, just love this type of theme you produce.

Oils are great fun - splendid for reflections, too, because of their long drying time. Your big-city street scenes are fantastic; quite an unusual subject.

I'm rather a fan of your work Mike and never really feel qualified to comment as it's so good!

Love the mood set.

Thanks for your comments everyone..always appreciated. Amanda, I learned a while ago how to make oils dry overnight which suited me down to the ground and half lf the reason why I eventually turned to them. I also think oils are more respected by the public.. no real reason for that but most people think a painting isnt a real one unless its done in oil!

30x30cm oil on board. Rain sweeps across O'Connell Street in North Adelaide. I've just switched from acrylics to oils and really enjoying it.
