So, I'll take the first one part of the way then change to the second for the remainder of my journey:
Steph's brooding northern edifice, seen contre-jour from a low viewpoint, is pieced together with creative collage and full of painted textures. A monumental moley masterpiece! Great stuff Steph, and in stark contrast to the gentle rolling summer meadows of Viviens southern landscape. Bronte's 'Wuthering Heights' meets Vaughan-Williams 'A Lark Ascending':
Jump off one bus, and onto the next (it's just as well I have my Auld Git's Travel Card!):
Flying high with Lorraine's multi-coloured kite looking down on sandy beaches gives a great sense of a blustery day at the sea-side. I believe one of the two "edjits" with the dog may in fact be Lorraine herself loving the freedom and pleasure a deserted beach brings us!. Well done Lorraine - it makes a great spacious image:
I will need to fly this kite for a while up at Penshaw Monument to see if I can achieve similar enjoyable lift-off's!

Very cool and dramatic painting, Steph. I like the textures and striking light/dark contrasts. The motion-filled sky looks great against the stoic solidity of the monument. Very nice work!
Lorraine, this landscape with kite is really lovely. There's a wonderful sense of distance here and the sky looks great. Great work!
I love that brooding towering building looming there - is that in my book? I do hope it is and it's on the move again - I'd be very happy to have that in my book so hope it is!
Love the kite and the aerial view Lorraine :>)
oh it's great that things are moving again :>)
These are both wonderful! So nice to see them and Lor I'd love to hear more about this process.
Thanks guys. Stoic. I like that. I've not heard from Casey as to why there was a log jam of work I'd sent him. But it's great to see them back in circulation. Lorraine, I love the view portrait-wise. Very graphic and, as was said, great sense of distance.
