I wanted a little more practice before trying the DSFDF challenge so I found a photo I took of Woodside Station while on the Long Island Railway. Straight lines are hard! So if the Station looks a little drunk, it's because of my unsteady hand not the architect's. 8x10 oil on RayMar

Wow, great work! I really love the nice lines and repetition of form.
Your colours, conposition and straightish lines make an excellent picture!
This is striking, Sheila. Nice work lady! I wish I had your courage to paint so many types of subjects.
Wow, this painting looks great. Sheila. Well done and keep it up.
Great job Sheila! I love that you're taking on these challenges!!
The is great Sheila...I think you are good to give the challenge a go!
Nicely done! I love it!
This rocks Sheila! I can see you are already getting more comfortable with the architecture. Great colours and composition.
Well done, Sheila!
Woodside Station definitely has a practice feel to it, Sheila.
You did a good job with the coloring here (very natural). The colors aren't over-the-top and not boring either.
Oh, and the station itself doesn't look drunk at all. It must be able to handle its liquor!

I like the fact that lines go off in all directions. It adds life to the scene and animates it.
Love to see that you are practicing for the next DSFDF challenge, good job! Karin would be proud of you. Will look forward to seeing your entry, and thanks for your nice comments on my blog.
I think you are definatly ready for the challenge!
You're amzing, Sheila...each painting is better than the last.
AMAZING, even...
It's fantastic, Sheila. no drunken stairs :-)
Very nice sheila well done. You are ready!
I'll echo Stephen this piece is animated with movement even though it's architecture. Your such a great example to show me I need to practice too, It' always good.
love this, Sheila.
I am also touched by your Art for Animals work.
Great job, Sheila!
You're ready to rock- or you've been rockin' it out already- holds lighter overhead...
I think this composition is tougher than the "challenge" reference! Straight-on from the side, with fewer opportunities for volume or perspective, is a LOT harder to pull off (in my opinion). Nice job!
I think your go to go, Sheila. You did a great job on this.
Wow! great piece! I love how you are developing your own style of original work. You'll need to have a gallery showing. Keep on painting!
Awesome!!!!!!!
