Interesting, a 50/50 split which works fine - a fabulous expressive piece Shirley…

The warm and cool colours are used to good effect and the way you have put pure coloured props in well chosen places, is masterful.

I like it very much as is Shirley, a super artwork

A very well painted composition indeed Shirley. Love the freedom of your brush strokes.

I’m glad you like it! I’ve hung it in the kitchen and it does remind me of my many walks along the prom during lockdown. Thanks!

Lovely painting Shirley.

I love how you've captured the distance.

Lovely painting and the sky really makes this, don’t know if I would do anymore but that’s in my eyes? Whatever is fabulous!👌

Very nice indeed, great perspective too!

Super brush work and colour Shirley.

Really appreciate these comments, thank you!

Beautifully painted Shirley.

This is probably still in progress even though I’ve signed it. With acrylics you can do things in whatever order you like, and I shall ponder it on my wall and see if I need to add a few glazes on the prom.
