Garda by Stephen Slater

So perfectly balanced Stephen in every aspect

Lovely warm glow Stephen - wish I was there.

Many thanks Dennis and Michael, I've beefed up the shadows and added a little pen work to it since but I don't think it's worth reposting.

Looks very inviting Stephen, lovely

This is very nice as it is Stephen. Again, you've got the sunshine and the heat perfectly.

A good feeling of warmth in this one Stephen.

Many of thanks Glennis, Marjorie and Louise for your encouragement.

That looks baking hot Stephen...and dusty, hope you had your sun cream on.

Many thanks Fiona, sadly this was painted at the art group but I did feel a little warmer looking at the photo of warmer climes!

This is a good study Stephen, very atmospheric, well done. Good architecture also.

Very nice Stephen , and I love the use of the foreground shadow

Many thanks Alan and Dermot.

I think you have captured these buildings really well giving a true flavour of the area. I like the nice touches - the cafe, people and umbrellas.

Many thanks Thea once again for your encouraging comments, much appreciated.

Many thanks Helen.
