What a fantastic painting, Peter, with so much detail and wonderful perspective. The composition is great and your choice of palette perfect - not much more to say!

Ann is right, fantastic is word for this one Peter. Although you have added quite a lot of detail, the painting is still fresh and the shadows on the road give a great lead-in to the picture. Good feeling of light and shade, very well done!

This is fantastic. Real skill needed to pull this off and you've got it in spades.

Easton-on-the-Hill is located at the north eastern tip of the district of East-Northamptonshire, UK. Sited on the A43, approximately 3.5 miles from Stamford. The village is compact in form, with the older part of the village located north of the High Street. It was recorded in the Doomsday Book as â€œEstoneâ€. The A43 was originally thought to have been a back lane to the High Street, and subsequently became a main turnpike. The oldest building in the village, excluding All Saints Church, is the â€˜Priests Houseâ€™. It was built in the 14th Century, extensively restored in 1867 and it is now owned by the National Trust. All Saints Church dates from the 12th Century and has been enlarged and altered over the centuries, the last major building works taking place in the late 19th century.
