Excellent. Love the shadows and hatching in the black and white.

Best beach you've done, really nice.

 

[Bartc]

Thanks, Jo and Murray.

Very nice little studies Bart!

 

[Bartc]

Thanks Boss.

But for the record, I do not consider these line and wash paintings as studies. That would imply that they are something quick for the sake of creating a larger more complex work later, which they are certainly not.

I consider them sketches, but finished works that do exactly what they are intended to do with no expectation of mutating them to anything else later.

Wrong word by me. They look complete as they are indeed.

Thanks. I know for many they would indeed be studies, so no harm, no foul.
