I agree about the drawing but certainly don't want to spend an hour before I get to paint either!! It was very interesting to see how Graham painted... so precise and careful yet they still have a lovey loose feel in parts, not at all how I paint!!<br /><br />We do live in an amazing part of the world, I don't think people realise what the countryside is like around this part of the country... I have a few more photos to be getting on with finally trying to get to grips with landscapes!!<br />Judith Farnworth Arthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03466625674796659185noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2350562909222800870.post-27743344094948176892015-03-12T02:17:54.068-07:002015-03-12T02:17:54.068-07:00I love paintings of the Pigeon Tower and this one&...I love paintings of the Pigeon Tower and this one's no exception. I think you're being a little over-critical - it looks great, including the building AND the people.<br /><br />We live in a beautiful part of the world and it's great that artists such as yourself are taking advantage of it and producing enjoyable art from it.<br /><br />I was interested to hear that you didn't do any sketching at all prior to painting and that's something I would really struggle with (although I did rather well in your last workshop without sketching). Most people feel that a good, strong drawing is the very foundation of a good painting (and Graham Berry is testament to that as we saw recently at the Art Club), but you produce many fine works with no pencil drawing at all. I think it's wonderful.<br />Tom McQuigganhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01298246605110198150noreply@blogger.com
