Super work Richard, so much detail but not over worked.

How well I know this scene Richard. Lovely depiction of Whitby. I did a very basic Whitby scene years ago, though I haven't put it in my gallery yet. It's nothing as detailed as yours. Lovely work.

I could only dream of painting something like this.. Brilliant

Exceptional painting of Whitby, like Adele I know Whitby well and yes also painted a similar scene, but not a patch on yours. You have achieved such an accurate and beautiful painting, and the rest of your gallery is wonderful.

Superb piece of work Richard. I thought that this would make an excellent jigsaw before I even read your notes!

Absolutely spectacular. This is one of those paintings you could look at for hours and still see things you hadn't noticed before.

20"x30". This painting of Whitby Harbour in North Yorkshire, England, was a commission for Falcon Jigsaw Puzzles. The painting shows the ruins of Whitby Abbey on the top of the east cliff, along with the interesting St Mary’s Church. These are reached by 101 steps at the rear of the town. In the foreground are the Duke of York pub and the Board Inn, and the RNLI lifeboat can be seen making its way out to sea. Because of all the detail, this painting took a long time to paint
