Lovely use of palette knife Thalia, Happy New Year to you 😀

A little different to your usual style, a very positive-even aggressive-technique. I'm impressed, having tried using a palette knife (and given up), this looks just the ticket to me.

Now this really was worth the effort - I'm quite envious - a great result Thalia.

Thank you very much Tessa, Linda, Lewis...indeed yes, aggressive may be the correct word as the light was so strong I could not see the scene or the support!!! Thanks Geoff, and Lesley, it's just the other end of my village, thanks Fiona, Michael, Sandra and Carole, much appreciate your kind words

The last plein air of 2018! Happy New Year to all my POL friends, this was painted, almost entirely, using a palette knife, unusual for me but I really enjoyed the challenge! It was painted early yesterday morning on a site which is so windy normally, yesterday the wind dropped.The light was changing so fast that a knife seemed to be the only way of catching it!
