What a great composition! ... rich yet muted Autumn colors - and I love the hinge and strap showing on the box.

Love this...quite different from all your others...wish you could make it to CA. I am n the coast across the bay from S.F. Beautiful view from my balcony !!

Steve Williamson

As ever beautiful subtle colouring, and that elusive detail without painting detail. Isn't the illusion of paint fascinating!

I have a blog myself - blog.williamsonfineart.co.uk - different style, of course, but I'd be interested in your comments.

Oh this was a splendid background, I think this one is one of your best paintings.
It's a masterpiece!

Painter’s notes

I was using the pochade box (my outdoor painting box) as a background not intending to include any details - hinges etc. but at a late stage in the painting it suddenly seemed like a good idea!
