Winter tram painting

[cookie273uk]

Although I have had numerous paintings in print this is the only one I have had printed on the front cover of an Art magazine (January 1994). I have painted a later version of this painting entitled 'Winter Tram ride', shown on the Forum and in my Gallery which I consider a far better painting but without the thrill of having it printed. The location is Tyburn Road about 1950. Eric (excuse the 2 copies, perhaps a moderator will kindly remove 1)

The light that you have captured in this painting is amazing.

Very nice painting Eric. I could never get perspective and vanishing points correct. Dave

Van Gogh`s "Sunflowers" may be worth millions but it`s boring (imo) Your paintings are brilliant & much more worthy of praise & display. Well done.

I have always admired that painting Eric.

How about a painting of the new Brum tram.

Frothy, always prefer the old to the new, May be less functional and a bit of a boneshaker and cold in the winter but more character, but will think about it. Eric

Know what you mean mate. Good to see Trams back though.

Hi Eric, like you I used the old trams and your paintings bring back nice old memories of the sounds, the drivers standing at the front, and the ticket collectors making sure we paid ...
