I’ve painted this view before, but had to redo it as part of a commission for an association of local tourist offices, who want the paintings to use for the covers of brochures.
I paint watercolours and write short stories.

A very fine piece Ian and definately Brochure work ! just the kind of thing that would appeal rather than a heavily painted scene. Light & luminous,with gorgeous fusions. I think you will be very busy !!!
Kind regards Bill
Thanks Bill, let’s hope so!!

Will you offer discount tickets to your friends? :)
Naturally Marsha. Once I am in a position of power I will exploit it for my own ends just like everybody else!

If your ears were burning the other night it was because I was discussing your work with my students. It was about how to develope your own identifiable style. Super job with this Ian.
