Dunno if I posted this piece on here some years ago when we went to Italy ,, anyway it’s not so much about the painting , this post is about where it’s going next and more to the point how it got there .
Now then we are in Tieland now and before we came over I asked one of TD’s esteemed members if he would like one of my paintings to adorn ,, ok then ruin the wall , of one of his new business ventures ,, he mentioned he would like a bit of Tuscany so I had this beast sitting in my second bedroom feeling unwanted and to my delight it fitted the bill
Now then ,, despite the fact my wife has a case / trunk big enough to swallow a days landfill , this wasn’t going to go in ,, so ,, what to do ,, I sawed the bugger in half after meticulously unpicking 3002 staples and then reassembling it over here !
Very very surprised I got it all back together ,, infact it’s better than it was before
Here it is reassembled in our little issan shack ,, maybe , just maybe we will get a shot of it in its new home later

Outta greens, but great as always.
Looks good, Nigel.
If you ever find yourself in Durham, Nigel, Prebends Bridge and the River Wear might be worth a visit for a bit of painting; either painting the bridge from the river walk or painting the view from the bridge. There are other great views along the riverside. If you're into painting buildings, a walk up and down the North and South Bailey might interest you.
