      Thanks Christine. Confident – WOW 🙂 These have all been 8 x 8. I like the square format. But I am feeling like I would like to go bigger. it’s a good size for daily painting though 🙂

   This is my new favourite! That blue vase is perfect amongst the ‘reds & oranges’. Beautiful textures and those ‘daisies’ – such wonderful shapes! This is such a great series of still ‘lifes’ Have a lovely day painting

      LOL, thank you Janet 🙂 I started with the idea I would do a glass vase, but I changed my mind. So glad to hear it still works. Happy painting to you as well my friend 😉

   Love the looseness of the wash in the table contrasted with the tighter rendering of the flowers. Makes for an interesting and dynamic composition!

    The direct simple spareness of flowers and vase, the nuanced variegation of background, the bold take-me-as-I-am of tabletop: love every bit of this, Sheila!

       Putting music in my head again today Dotty. (Take me as I am, Faith Hill) 🙂 Sounds like I have a balanced combination. LOL. So glad you like it Dotty 🙂
