Landscape - Sunday evening

I started this landscape some time ago, but grew bored with it and put it aside.  The original painting was bright green, and set on a bright sunny summer's day.  After thinking about it for a while, I decided that I needed to change the mood, and so converted it to an evening setting.  So hence, the church became the focal point of the painting, and the lighted windows gave it it's name of "Sunday evening".  The hills in the background are very similar to the hills in the Mitta Valley, where we used to live.  The village and grape vines are taken from a Barossa style setting, in South Australia.
