Atmosphere
I have selected some of my atmospheric paintings, and matched them to the months.
Jan – Graveyard Metallica. The lowest, darkest point in winter, in the Northern hemisphere. It gets better from now on!
Feb – Hetton Colliery 1838. A dark and industrial scene, we have to tough this month out, like those hard men of that era in the mines!
Mar – Smalholm Sunset . The light begins to get brighter as Spring is nearly here.
Apr – Blea Tarn. Spring is here and the light gets bright.
May – El Golco . Bright long days are here!
Jun – Corinth . The season warms up and the longest days of the year.
July – Market Day. The hottest month.
Aug – Toscana . Holidays abroad and at home.
Sept – Victorian Lady Fishing . September begins to turn the season.
Oct – Old Carpathia . The dark nights begin, and October ends with Halloween.
Nov – Beamish Wheel . Autumnal colours are everywhere.
Dec – Trees of Eden . The winter Solstice, and celebration of the birth of Jesus.
The reverse is, of course, true for those of you in the Southern hemisphere!

Colin Cartwright replied
I worked hard on describing each month, and the relevant painting.
I put a fine eclectic mix of my various paintings into this calendar, Jim.
Well done on winning the landscape painting challenge! At least a painting must win that one! I never get anywhere with those challenges.

Well done Colin and hope it brings some rewards. I’m expecting my own calendar to be delivered any day now so will see what RB’s quality is like.

That’ll be interesting. If it’s good, I might get mine done for a present. But we hope others might buy it!

Superb collection, Colin! I especially like March, April, June, July & August. I like the way you’ve matched them to the months/seasons (though it doesn’t work for us in the southern hemisphere, I’m afraid). Excellent work!
Colin Cartwright replied
Yes, sorry about that – I keep forgetting the reverse is true for you Aussies!
I’ll modify the description accordingly.
Agnes McGuinness
This is superb, Colin. Great work. Agnes:)))
Tina Hogg
Super collection – my favourite is March! Lovely work Colin
Colin Cartwright replied
Thank you, Tina. ‘Smailholm Sunset’. Ironically, this has the most views in my gallery. My only photo art, which takes a fraction of the time and effort of my paintings.
