Of course he is a grey. Silly me. Amazing colour, like those Lipp whatisname horses. Beautiful creatures, but i am not likely to found patting one.

Truly amazing to see how you put your paintings together and see the progressiom and style emerging.

The sketch of the buildimgs is done freehand? or with rulers?
Either way it is so good!

The bush at the back is magnifico...

yer so right Ocker. A perfect place for a studio for you, plus you would have the stream right there, which is a lovely thing to have so close. I love this scene and the way you painted it. I'm intrigued by all the white/light grey bottom right. I guess they like to keep things clean looking... It's quite a contrast to the rest of the scene.
