Church, washing line and dairy factory



Titling paintings is hard work.

Church, washing line and dairy factory




Naming a painting, giving it a title, can be the saviour or the death of said painting.  I know of an instance when someone bought my painting because she thought the title was good.  So , conversely, someone might have chosen NOT to buy a painting because of a title. See where the dread sets in?

I almost called this "The Washing line between" I may still yet.

Here are the others I was mulling over.

Are we there yet?
Rural/urban
Blue sky driving
The road out of town/the road into town

I would be delighted if you commented and left your own thoughts on the above titles. Feel free to suggest an alternative title.
