Description
This was done with really no purpose or structural plan in mind other than trying to paint something with mood....just playing around in Painter and just built it up...was done fairly quickly as far as my paintings are concerned Iknow the perspective is far from perfect...anyways I hope its still okay and that you enjoy

The atmosphere is a little gloomy do to the dark earthy tones, and building structures. It's a nice little piece. Keep up the work.

you're hoping this is okay? this is INSANE. in fact the title of this and the image reminded me alot of an old series of books i once read called 'Redwall'. dont know if youve heard of it. but yeah there was a big red brick Abbey in it named Redwall n_n - i love this image man, thanks for the flashback

The Redwall books by Brian Jaques kicks ass! I read them when I was a kid. It was about an abbey full of animals like mice, and a badger and things, and they were the nicest reads ever! You just wanted to hop in the book and live out your life peacefully, the books are that good, and the abbey was that nice

It's beautiful; the clouds really work here. The structure isn't all that interesting, though. Still painted well!

i think it looks like the morning after a revolution or something. everything is tranquil. none on the streets. still the guns' smoke hanging in the air. only one has already awaken, the priest.. praying for better times.
hope you don't mind, but i always want to hear a story about what i see, and if there is no story to read, i will invent one.
well done.
