Monchique, view to the Convent

This is a larger painting than most, and took a considerably longer time to complete.  The challenge of working on a larger format eventually paid off, when all the elements came together, bringing a powerful presence to the painting.

The painting shows the cultivated terraces up towards the Convent.  Below are houses in the outskirts of the town.  The sketch from which I worked is below.
