Greenwich Church.I did this painting years ago. I did a sketch of it and a photograph. I always try to do the painting from the sketch, but never succeed. I have`to refer to the photograph. I might have a go at doing it again from this painting. I haven`t got the photo anymore. P.S. Mind you I had`to paint the Chiddingstone Oast`s fron a pencil sketch.

  1. Brilliant Victor. The clarity is outstanding. This is a gem. I work from sketches and the reference photograph simultaneously as well.

  3. Oh yes, Vic, I agree with Linda, it's brilliant. I also hear artist saying they work from their plein air sketches, but I use both. This piece is well done my friend.

    All the best,
    Joan

  4. Hi Joan.
    Thank you my friend for your lovely comment.
    There are two things I can`t seem to do and that is, I can`t seem to complete a painting plein air. I also can`t paint when someone is talking to me. I don`t know how any artist can do that, but i know some can. Thanks again Joan and all the best.
