Montalcino town walls

Montalcino town walls
Comments

this painting has movement and life - one or two criticisms one could make of details, but the overall impression is what matters here, and I like the sense of vibrancy you've achieved with your colours and shadows, plus the tonal contrast which brings life to any painting. If you want the criticisms, the difference between shadow and actual foliage isn't always particularly clear, eg in the darks across the path, but - that's about it. A powerful, immediate sketch in colour.

Always loved drawing and painting. Studied biology at UEA, PGCE at Sussex, then part-time art studies at Sussex and Brighton, including printmaking. Before Covid I gave a little weekly watercolour class for 7 years. Now I am using acrylics on canvas and paper en plein air whenever possible.
