Thanks, Susan - windmills are an attractive subject - but I've found them hard - I've done 3/4 paintings of themem and none has been a keeper! If you've got some 'to hand' - then I would say def go for it!

This one's great, John. There are several windmills here where I live; but, I've never tried to paint them. I love the perspective on this.

Hi, Lori - I reckon there's a solution to render the concept well - but I don't know what it is. The first problem is, it's a very gray day! The second is that with the mill's vanes that big, maybe the have to be rendered pretty tightly/ultr-realistically - maybe I need to 'zoom out' to be able to get it to work 'loose'? Ta!
