Beautiful castle Roland, love the sky and reflections :)

Many thanks Maria, my first uploaded image on this great site, I hope to get up a lot more work soon. Many thanks for you kind comments.

very attractive work Roland, the sky really sets off the castle.

Stunning, dramatic and exceptionally well done Roland.

Hi Stephen, Hello Michael. Many thanks for your very kind words. I'm delighted you both enjoy the painting so much. I was trying to really highlight the castle so worked the sky as dark as I dared ! (without overkill ) Trying to save the real darks for the cast shadow in the quayside foreground. I'm new to this site so still feeling my way around but very much looking forward to exploring the many artist galleries and uploading my own paintings. Many thanks again, your comment are very warming.

what a fine collection of watercolours in your gallery

I agree, you have some fine watercolours in your gallery, I have just picked this one out because of the wonderful light that you have achieved here, really excellent stuff Roland.

Many thanks Pat and Alan, appreciate your comments and time taken to look at my work.

Another glowing picture Roland. The castle with its reflections looks magnificent against that beautiful sky.

Brilliant light in this painting.

Richard, Chandra, Robert & Jennifer, Thanks so much. Your comments really inspire me to push my work on and keep the brush wet, many thanks again.

Wonderful gallery... i love this place, you've captured its beauty, love the colours

Ruthy, Many thanks for your kind comments, glad you're enjoying the paintings.
