Rosie WW1 war graves 2.jpgHave painted this for a member of her Great Uncles war grave (France??) not sure of exact location. Her uncles is the one nearest boundary wall. The painting is not so 'bluey' looking as this image but using my Windows Live Photo Gallery I still could not obtain a good true colour reproduction. THE LESS 'BLUEY' VERSION IS NEARER THE CORRECT COLOUR, don,t usually have this problem with reproducing correct colours ???? EricRosie WW1 war graves.jpg

Nice one, Eric, and it seems a bit of a change from your usual style with a predominance of blues. Almost reminds me of a minimalist photograph.
