The paintings are completely different, so I don't think it matters.<br /><br />Lovely handling of the building. You sure can draw! I like the shadow below the horse and cart.<br /><br />I have not yet found inspiration in Belfast, whereas Lisbon inspired me immediately.Shelley Rosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05100257353312695070noreply@blogger.com
