So hard to choose! The Greek Village is one of my favorites because I love the rhythm of the rectangular shapes as well as the contrast between the light walls and dark windows. I also love Prague for the cool rooftops and detailed stitching. Great collection!
Thanks for your comment, Vickie. I found the Greek Village interesting to work on, because the photo showed that the white walls were in fact reflecting other colours, like pale turquoise or pale violet -- at least the shadows appeared to have those colours in them.
Port Clyde has been a particular favorite since I first laid eyes on it, and the Greek Village a second favorite. Those lines!!
It's one of my favourites, too. Kay. The phone lines are visually interesting, and they also serve to attach the layers together.
Port Clyde has my vote. Somehow there is perfect harmony with the warm and cool greys.
And the colour palette was very close to the reality of a seaside town shrouded in fog.
