I receive daily images of paintings from Julian Merrow-Smith by email. This is todays. "Cyclamen" 15cm x 14cm (approx 5.5"x 5.5") oil on card. You can bid for it by auction if you are quick (see below)
I think his work is superb and wonder why it has so much visual impact. Here is the original and my two digitally enhanced images.
The original painting showing the treatment of lost and found edges bring it all to life
B&W showing showing the strong tonal composition
The use of colour intensity and temeperature enhaces the overall composition.
