Fantastic painting Ray. You are a very talented artist!

Beautiful painting by the way.

Absolutely brilliant paintings,they just draw you in and almost feel like you're there..I wish I could paint like that.

A great picture. I do a 'bit' of watercolour stuff myself, but I'm nowhere near as good as you Ray.

JB..I do a bit of oil painting,and keep saying I'll give watercolour a try,but looking at these,I've no chance.

Lovely, But where is this

I don't recognise this place

This is looking from the top of Market Street..old toilets used to be on the right where the wall is..Hallgate is first on the left.

Hi Maureen. A few months ago I was searching for local water colour painting classes without success but I have recently discovered there is a class at Haigh Hall. I have been thinking of joining that and wondered if you would be interested.

Hello Margaret,that's very kind of you..and it would be lovely..but I'm going into Hospital next week and don't really know the recuperation time,hopefully not too long..I will keep in touch Margaret and thank you again..

Best of luck Maureen. Fingers crossed you'll be up and running again in no time at all. Take care! xx

Thank you Margaret..I'm sure I will.

This picture would make an excellent jigsaw. I used to catch the bus from lowes to do my courting

Stunning water colour view from the Market Place down Market Street, think the white building is the Crofters Arms, further down you can see the Methodist Hall.
Much has changed but the pesky pigeons are still there!
This would make a great Christmas card.
