Oh yes … I like this a lot Colin. My Neighborhood Group and North East England Group and possibly even The River Tyne Group would love this .. believe me. Please join those three groups, as there are a lot of your paintings you could add to them and it would increase your audience. You can discover new groups by looking in the profiles of other artists. I just joined a great one called Shameless Self-Promotion. To save you time, go to my Blythart Profile and you can click on Groups I am in that may be suitable for you too. Tagging your work and joining groups and doing lots of Favouriting and Watching will also increase your audience eventually. You seem popular alredy, but it never hurts to increase your circle of contacts. I only Favourite and Watch artists whose work I sincerely admire though, but that isn’t difficult as there are so many great artists on Redbubble. Go for it my friend!

Nice work Colin! England has always represented a unique blend of the old and new. This painting demonstrates that all too well.

Well done Colin. From what I’ve seen of the subjects you paint I could well see it making a very interesting and attractive book.
