Canal-side

This painting has been sold

I don't think I'll ever get tired of these old tributes to industry. It was so quiet by the canal and it struck me how even only fifty years ago the noise and activity down here would have been deafening.

Long shadows

It felt great to be back painting Stalybridge and this one is "hot off the easel". I just finished it about 10 minutes ago. We have had a wonderful week here weather-wise so I have a number of new Stalybridge ones planned. By the way, the street really was as empty as this. Just an old pick up truck there sleeping the day away. (I know, it looks like a car).
