A great achievement. Wonderful composition. Great reflections. I also like water mixable oils. Next time I go to visit Battlesbridge I will have to look out for this viewing angle.

Thank you, Pat. Do you live in this area? I belong to the Roche art club.

Hello Therese, my wife´s sister lives in Romford and we sometimes go round Battlesbridge when we visit her.

Your reflections are totally absorbing, definitely worth the time delay painting efforts.

Wow, what a beautiful painting.

I was fascinated by the amazing reflection of the mill. i painted the picture using water based oils. It took me several days as I had to wait for it to dry a bit at times so as not to smudge it too much. I worked on the sky and the water alternately and it made it difficult not to smudge. This is why I like using water based oils, they take less time to dry. My favourite bit is the dried grasses in the foreground and they took less than 10mns to paint!
