The house on the hill

Oil on hardboard 8" x 8" £65 (British pounds) plus postage & packing (£7 for US; £3.50 for UK and Europe)
I worked a lot on this painting. Originally it had a blue sky but I wanted the scene to be very still so that the house almost "brooded" over the surrounding countryside.

"Brooding," like you say...emotionally expressive. Love the simple, straightforward design, especially that "zig-zag" line.
Thanks Don. It was really hard to capture the colours though in the photo here.
Very beautiful painting and synthetic vision. Very suceeded !
Thank you Regis - I appreciate your comments.
Sheila - The colors and design are perfect - it all makes the house seem so mysterious. I just love this!
Thanks Connie - glad you like it.
Love this painting, very hopperesque, its amazing what can be achieved with some coloured paste.
Hey Simon, thank you for that. I did think about Hopper after it was finished, the way he seemed to carry shadows from buildings, extended into the land around.
Beautiful.
Thanks Diane.
