"Opmaak voor de show." Arnhem, Holland.

The skipper was quite ^$^$#@^%$# off that I had to paint this
side of his ship, ... hehehe
The other side was all in tip top scape, I asked if he was willing
to pay for NOT getting his ships name on the painting, he refused
we agreed that I would come back when his ship was painted.

Next week that is, there will be a monumental show of all kind
of old ships the so called "Kadedagen"
You can visit their website > Overthere < (Dutch though)

"Zonnenmiddag." Nijmegen, Holland.

Wow what a spring, at least yesterday, you almost
could call it summer, ....

I've got some comment that my paintings look a bit
underexposed I can't seem to get it right, maybe you
could help by commenting how much grey areas you can see
below the painting, ... it should be 14 including.(black&white)

Thanks.

"Drie bomen en een Cola." Arnhem, Holland.

A great day, .. what did i say? A great week!!
Spring is in full force, and i am already burned, ...

After a long time my first cityscape, and i started of
already with a new lesson, ... don't paint in front of a
bench in a park! People tend to sit down relaxed in the Sun
and keep watching you paint, ... bugger! (lol)
