Another lovely watercolour painting depicting a typical Cricket scene here in the UK - rain clouds hovering above, waiting to stop play! I like the subtle colours you used in this and love the different trees. Great composition. Good luck in the contest. Suzanne

As one who gets caught in storms often, I really appreciate and like the dark moody sky above.
Nice painting of the cricket players, green trees, and cars in the distance.
Nice work Brenda ;)

Another interesting painting of my favourite sport. In India cricket is considered a religion!:) We are mad about cricket! You have brought out the essence of the game and the atmospherics well. Thanks for sharing!

    Than you happy you liked them.. I was thinking of India and Australia when I was doing these. I even looked on line for inspiration of those countries pitches. I might do another couple in the future that represents this very popular sport outside the UK.

Hi Brenda, I like thatbyou have created a series, each one showing a different location for the game of cricket to be played! Here they are playing on a field , I can see the cars parked on the road at the edge of this field, I love the trees you have placed in this scene and appreciate their various shapes , the sky is a warning sign , that it may rain at any minute !i love that deep violet grey in the clouds , this is well created and arranged . Well presented!

    Happy you liked the collection. Thanks again for reviewing. I leave Germany on Wednesday for Portugal and my studio so may have a rest from here till I get sorted. Thinking about another collection, may be golf, using Scottish highlands. But also must think about the tourists who visit me. Bread and butter money. ....

Very nice composition. I can see the bad weather looming overhead in the sky area. People are well drawn and placement is good. I like the landscape background area with the trees. I enjoyed viewing it.

one of things that always impress me in your work is texture and color. the creation does not have to be detailed for the viewer to totally understand the scene. the body language and form in the cricket players is believable. the depth in the trees and background is excellent. am sooooo glad you are joining us in the music video..you should be featured here..wink. the blend of color is excellent. the creation is well balanced and very eye appealing to the viewer. creative and awesome work overall(clapping)

    You are very complimentary on my primitive style artwork which you rightly say doesn't make a lot of close detail, which is my intention. Good insight! Thank you very much. Looking forward to more on that music video.
