Cittadella

Comments

The colours are are fabulous and you can feel the size of it, even in such a small painting.

Freshly painted Thalia, looks a super setting for an exhibition. In contrast, I'm putting four into a joint exhibition of local artists in a nearby church att the weekend!

Super ruggedness about this piece Thalia.

You caught the timeless fortress aspect of the scene Thalia in such a simple and effective way. Nice work.

Love those bury Siennas and the lovely, natural brush strokes Thalia.

Thank you. Ellen and Stephen, what kind things to say. All the very best for your joint exhibition, Stephen, hop you sell them all! Thanks John kind of you, I left almost all the detail of the countryside out to try to emphasise its majesty. Ooh! Thank you Jim, that's exactly what I was aiming for! Thank you Carole, and Margaret, yes I think Raw and Burnt Sienna are two o my most favourite colours!

This tiny 3x5ins picture is of the Cittadella, where my recent exhibitions have been. I have taken this from a high vantage point on a hill in Xaghra [Shahra]. Don't think it does justice to the scale of the majestic huge fortress, but the little thing sold to a lovely elderly lady who thought at first it was a post card!!!
