I can feel the brilliance of this sunlit day through your painting. Here you have depicted that brief moment in history when horses and buggies were giving way to the automobile. like/f

The fine detail and glow of the colors gives a feeling of special nostalgia. I really, really, love the street with its lavender and violet tones David. Excellent and feels good and happy to view it. F/L
David Godbolt replied:
Thank you Randy, that is so good to know that I have projected my thoughts and feelings of this street as you describe, it is still much the same really in atmosphere. Pity about the continuous line of parked cars, but thankfully the continuous row to trees behind the iron railings that drop all the way down the cliffs to the sea level has now grown so tall that you can't see over it and I think actually improves the view. now you just get tantalizing hints of the sea beyond by the sparkling sea reflections here and there between the branches. I have always loved that view since I first came here in 1946.....Much appreciated Randy!
