This is great Denise. I like the bold, strong lines of the buildings and the colours you have used.

That is delightful, Denise. A very good line and wash!!

I notice the sketch on the forum and thought it was really good the addition of the wash has really enhanced it , it’s now a excellent pen and wash and Mose so because it your first attempt you amaze me with you skill Denise.

A super composition with great detail Denise. I enjoy the challenge of working from old black and white photographs. And I think you do too.

Thanks very much Spencer, David, Paul, Heather and Chris.

Really good drawing work Denise, you’ve got yourself a smashing pen & wash.

Terrific shapes & lines.

Great work for a first attempt Denise. Well done.

Great buildings and colours and as said bold lines. As a first - Impressive.

I really like it Denise.

Much appreciated Fiona, Stephen, Rikke, Richard and David.

Strong image with all the detail you want . Particularly like the movement in the foreground and its role in the whole picture.

Lovely atmospheric painting

This is my first line and wash. I found an old photo on the net about a hundred years old so I had to imagine the colours because the photo was so dark. I watched Colin Steed's Pen and Wash study on the techniques section to give me a bit of an idea. I really enjoyed doing it. I will do some more I think.
