Oil on board

From a wonderful foto I found on the Wet Canvas Reference Image Library.

Hi Bill - this is great. Love the shadows and colours. Your perspective is well done.. I'm still working on this and find it very difficult. Never heard of the Wet Canvas Reference Image Library but will check this out.

Thanks everyone for your comments and encouragement.
This was a departure for me and I enjoyed painting it.

Maggie- I got some great tips on perspective, as well as some other ideas, from

Bill,
This has a nice fresh feeling about it . The colors all work together well. I'm amazed that the gold on the center building doesn't steal your eye but simply heightens the dynamics of the painting. Perspective is right on.

Thanks, Kassie and Brian for your encouragement.
I'm doing another building painting now. All that perspective is tedious, but I like them anyway.
