Great work, Grahame! I see zero issues with this painting! Might I suggest, at the end you mentioned knowing when the painting was done yes/no. I too stop at the same point as you did. But, I do one more step. I "always" sleep on the painting and come back to it the next morning when I'm fresh (with fresh eyes and mind). I then create a list of no more than five items to fix (at the most). This limits reworking it to death. If it needs more than five fixes it should probably head to the paper cutter to use as test scraps! I really also like that you did not try and tie the wire poles together with any sort of lines. Besides it being difficult to do (mistake city!), with the poles being that far away the lines would have just been a distraction. Good Job!

I didn't have time to finish the whole video. Not sure if you spoke about this or not, but Paul henry is one of my fav landscape painters. He painted that area over 100 times! I'm American and I clicked because I knew I heard the name Connemara before.

Why u have not painted the cable joining the poles. It would have given more depth to the picture. Any how a marvellous painting. Hays off to u.
