On Two Wheels in the Silent City by Thalia Stones

Certainly gives a looser image, good to experiment.

Love it Thalia, Silent City really works the imagination. Lovely.

Definitely a success Thalia. Technique looks great!

Wow, that large brush on such a small space has worked really well.

How do you do it Thalia? Brilliant results and especially on such a small area with such a large brush.

Super result Thalia, love the looseness.

An astonishing technique, but it works so well.

Thanks, Stephen, I'm experimenting a lot, this was over a previously used board, so loads of lumps and bumps, no chance to fiddle using a huge straight edged brush and a few extra darks with the knife and cotton bud!!! Thanks, Jim, Mdina is the old capitol of Malta, and only allows a few cars and delivery vans into its precincts...we all wish other cities here would follow suite!!! Thanks, Marjorie, Heather, Carole, Fiona and Lewis. I enjoyed myself so much I'm doing some more on top of old tiny paintings!!! Carole, I just prepare a load of paint and dip in without thinking too much or following the image in detail! Go for it!

The new technique is a success in my mind Thalia. Using a large brush and restricting the detail has resulted in lovely loose impressionistic painting.

Don't know how you did this with the tools you used, but it is brilliant.

Lovely painting ,fresh and full of atmotsphere

Wonderful composition Thalia.

This has been very successful. I really love the style. The brushwork is dynamic

This has worked out very well. Mysterious.

very beautiful x

Great work! with the effect of looseness, which is very gently and relaxing to viewers eyes!
