54. Your back alley is a fascinating place! It's a wonderful painting

I really like the way you show the sunlight bouncing off the top leaves and how the alleyway itself is dark and in the shadows with just a hint of foreboding. The blue car with the window reflecting the sky is a nice touch and saves the scene from being dark and scary.

This is a really good painting and depicts a little piece of Americana and a feeling of appreciation for our surroundings and the places we live.

Very nice. Compelling. Beautiful forgotten corners in life responding to the seasonal changes. I love it!
