this is really great. I am from Southend and live next to the pier and it reminds me of a quiet winter's morning on the seafront. well done

it's like a more sobering version of Munch's 'Scream'... it's the morning after

It reminds me of Edvard Munch's The Scream too.
Like feeling expressed by colour.

It reminds me of Edvard Munch's The Scream, only hold the screamer. I love the colors you've used and the transition into the sky warming upward. Very nice!

When I first saw it I thought it was a water color. It's beautiful, especially for your first time with oils. I have yet to actually work with oils in depth, but hopefully I'll be able to take a painting class soon. I love the colors and simplicity of it.

My painting class teacher said it had that watercolour look too Oils is such a great medium, i love how you can use it very thinly to get a soft and watercolour look, or paint very thick to get a bold and texture-y look. My painting class is almost over now but i'm definately gonna buy some oils for my own and practise with it!
Thanks for the nice comment I'm glad you like it!

:: nods :: I have a small set of oil paints that I would like to use, but I don't think I am comfortable enough yet to paint without some sort of guidance. I think my art comes out better when I have some sort of feedback during the process and not just afterwards.
