I see you have been pretty industrious over Christmas, I was just consumed heroic quantities of food and alcohol. Well I did a couple of paintings, but they are very middling. Sunny scenes, well I am about to post a couple of old paintings, I cant seem to paint out of season, it has to be recent.Simon Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03736168552091115710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6362613327163681490.post-31210392110373523872009-01-07T23:15:00.000+00:002009-01-07T23:15:00.000+00:00Great painting Simon.

I just love the colours you use in the daytime scenes.Sheila Vaughanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11202418013915704272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6362613327163681490.post-22724458437184463952008-11-24T09:23:00.000+00:002008-11-24T09:23:00.000+00:00Thanks Mike, saw this place regularly when driving...Thanks Mike, saw this place regularly when driving home in evening light. Found out yesterday that Hopper used to sketch from a moving car, presumably with his wife driving, I have tried taking pics from same, but by the time you have seen a bit of magic the composition has changed.Simon Joneshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03736168552091115710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6362613327163681490.post-12620831696386559332008-11-23T19:21:00.000+00:002008-11-23T19:21:00.000+00:00Simon, agree with Stephen this is very nice.
