Cool

Lovely painting Edith, do I see some Taghera influence
Like your colours , good contrast, and the steam is excellent.
Just one comment,
Perhaps some darks in your smoke would contrast against the sky more , billowing into the air,
Rod.

P.S. Will we see Ships next ?

Thanks for the comments. Yes i see Taghera has posted a train too, and his is very good.
Rod i wonder what Taghera will say if he reads your comments.
Hope he is pleased, don't want to upset anyone. Think it must be me bushes - is it?
See you soon.

What i'll say Edith is you've made a really first class job on the train, its brilliant, do more of this sort of painting i think you are suited to it.
