I am still enchanted with doors ... to me they're portals (like eyes) to the souls of the owners ... and for these older doors, a link to the past, history written in peeling paint, old stones, aged wood, and the companionship of green weeds ....
OH yes! old doors. They have so much character. I think it's the subtle colouring of your wall that shows such lovely aging. The shadow on the door is perfection I'm understanding the depth of that old doorway by seeing the shadow cast in rich colour on that thick wooden door.
I think you should do a series of doors Lin as they are exceptional. It's your ability to see the wonderful detail in them and the sensitive use of colors that make them outstanding! Love it!
This is boldly drawn, and I love the light and shade, the reflections, the colours in the wall, the greenery tickling the foot of the door ... I really do think your door series is worth making prints from.

I love doors too, Lin. This is beautifully done. You do a lovely job on the stonework too.

Wonderful! You sure have a way with doors! Love the colors.
This is just beautiful. The shadows really make the picture.
This "door" series is absolutely phenomenal!! I love the sunlit area on this one--an excellent execution my friend!!

I think this door has a sense of mystery to it. Really great picture!
This is my second comment. Where do you find these doors to paint?
Trying to see if new profile photo shows up.
just enough detail to tell a story. I love all your 'portals', what a great theme you have going here!
Wow wow wow, one of your best yet I think. Love this Lin. :o)
Fabulous work, Lin! I love the door, the wall...everything about it. :)
Beautiful work on this door -- the light and dark in the door itself is really perfect.
I know what you mean about doors. I love them, too. So much character. This is gorgeous. Love the colors.
