A superb monochromatic interpretation, Philip, well done!

Beautiful painting Philip

So atmospheric - a superb watercolour Philip

Lovely painting Philip

Thank you for your comments which I find very encouraging. Watercolour always gives you more than you expect and often more than you deserve. When I did 'dales sheep' I was interested in composition and how objects break a line or join two parts of a painting i.e the sheep break the horizontal line of the walls and join the bottom and top shapes and I think the composition works, however, what was unexpected was the the way french ultra, burnt sienna, raw sienna and some water gave me sheep with attitude!

Philip I love your sheep, love the whole thing! Great amosphere.

This is beautifully painted, perfect placement, superb atmosphere and a lovely palette.

I can only echo the comments of the other people. -8 here this morning I know just how the sheep feel.

Similar scenes in Derbyshire too! Brilliant painting. Love the misty fells.

Excellent use of watercolour - it can take you by surprise (one way or the other!) but this didn't happen by accident.

You are too humble Philip you have a beautiful touch with the brush and colour - truly a pleasure to see your work

This has got to be one of my favourite paintings ! I absolutely love it!!! The colour, the style and the subject are spot on for me. Looking through your gallery, I like your work very much. <br />Diana
