Seascapes Calendar

...has reached 200 views. I’m pleased with that, as it has just overtaken the 168 for ‘Atmosphere’ and the 120 for ‘The Masters’ calendars.

I hope those viewing, enjoyed them as much as I did painting them!

All the best for the Xmas/Solstice holidays.

Colin.

I’m a beginner, but I’m sure my paintings are not that bad.

Does anyone have any suggestions, on how to get a more inspiring response?

I’m starting a course soon…
