Even if I do say so myself it works well in that room as the light is not too bright so you really get to see the colours of the painting.  This is one of my bigger paintings (153 x 92 cms) but it does illustrate that you don't necessarily need a big house, wall or space for these paintings.  Mickleden and the Pikes doesn't looked cramped on the wall, in fact it looks as though it was painted specially for that space. So thank you Emma and Sheila for giving this painting a lovely new home.
