Gentle Giant by Paul Bennell AGAvA

A really powerful painting Paul. Love those colours.

Thanks so much Adele - it was a tremendous sunset on bank holiday Monday and I sat with my camera snapping away as it got dark. A bit of artistic licence - but that's what we do!

Indeed it is Paul. Will look forward to some more of your artworks.

I like those scenes of industry and beauty

Thanks Holger - yes industrial scenes hold a brutal attraction.

A great powerful painting Paul but also gentle at the same time as you have it in the title. Gorgeous colours too.

awesome

Thank you Satu - I find that using artist grade oil paints really helps to produce something that can look "credible"

Thanks John!

Know it well and the occasional drift of odour if the wind is wrong. That's a smashing depiction, always drawn to industrial subjects

Beautifully calm sky and reflections with the harmonious busy detail. Brilliant palette Paul

Much appreciated Derek

Thanks Carole - the palette was a risk but it seemed to work.

What a wonderful painting Paul. The sky, reflections, buildings etc, are so well observed, and i love the overall mood. Superb.

Thank you Joann - much appreciated

Wow - missed this one: brilliantly done.

Beautiful color and well done scene, especially with all those reflections! I like the lights coming on around the refinery, it so very realistic.

Thank you Paul
