I've painted my alley again.

[Ocelot II]

It's the summer version of this:

[fierywoman]

1. I love them both -- very strong composition!

[2naSalit]

2. Well done!

Looks familiar, like a scene from around here.

[yonder]

3. I forgot about that considerable talent you have..

Nice - will look forward to more.

[Deuxcents]

4. Very nice 😊 l love the black n white with the touch of green in the tree. So realistic

[Diamond_Dog]

5. I think both are excellent!

The reflective puddle in the summer version makes an eye-catching focal point. I love the atmosphere in both. Very nicely done!

[LoisB]

6. Both are fantastic! I love that you included the shadows under the vehicles.

[Jilly_in_VA]

7. Wow!

Looks like an Edward Hopper painting. You have much talent.

[bif]

8. Excellent! Both of them.

Especially the top one. I think I mentioned the "100 Alley's" project when you posted the first one.

[Ocelot II]

10. The owner of the white garage in the top painting is the 100 Alleys artist!

[bif]

13. Very cool.

Yours are as good or better!

[Ocelot II]

14. Thanks, but his are way better. I got the idea from him, though.

9. Wonderful

[femmedem]

11. Another beauty!

It's always a treat to see your work.

[Bristlecone]

12. Really good. You are good at perspective.

I struggle with roof lines.

[MLAA]

15. Wow!

They are both fantastic! I love the snow covered alleyway with the tire tracks 🙂

[surfered]

16. You are very good! Thanks for sharing

[wryter2000]

17. Those are wonderful

But looking at the second one is making me feel cold.

[PatSeg]

18. Those are wonderful

At first I took what you wrote literally and I was wondering how and why you were "painting your alley".

[Nittersing]

24. Ha! And thanks. That's how I read it at first too.

[PatSeg]

25. Glad to see I wasn't alone!

[HeartsCanHope]

19. Love them both!

It must be nice to have artistic talent. I'm more on the stick figure end of the spectrum.
My favorite is the snowy one, but the reflection of the moon in the puddle in the summer one is really well done. Thank you so much for sharing them with us.

28. The only thing I can paint...

…is walls. I’m so envious. We have a lot of talented artists here on DU.

[AllaN01Bear]

20. ohhh, ahhhh.

[3Hotdogs]

21. Damn !

[Bluethroughu]

22. I like the winter alley, right now, and

the summer alley in the winter.

[MontanaMama]

23. I love them both.

The puddle in the first painting...

[dflprincess]

26. I like them both

and I can feel the difference between a summer & winter night when I look at them.

[3catwoman3]

27. Wow, wow, WOW!

That puddle looks so real that I feel as f I were able to touch the actual pain
Noting, my fingertip would come away wet.

[peasant one]

29. you have talent

These are lovely and convey so much--I feel like I could walk down that alleyway and feel the cold air, hear the snow crunch, and sense the quietness of the wintry night while looking at that pinkish sky. I love the summer one too cause I can hear the crickets, smell the moisture in the air and imagine my excitement at being out at night with jocular friends or family walking down this alley toward some adventure or hi-jinks. Keep up the good work!

[Ocelot II]

30. Thanks, everyone, for your kind comments!

I can see now a few little things I have to fix but I appreciate your words of encouragement. I totally invented the puddle - it wasn't in the reference photo - so I'm pleased that addition seems to have been fairly successful.

[intrepidity]

31. I like your style!

Very original and evocative.
