The quality of light is typical of your work Alix, though the style is indeed a little unusual. But yes it does work, at first the thumbnail on the gallery page reminded me of a classic railway poster, though on seeing the full sized image I can see it is more abstract. Even so, it is a like from me.

Nice composition.

I agree with Tony, what's the medium Alix?

Tony and Kal, thank you so much for your comments. Light is probably because I have extremely rarely had a studio with any light remotely suitable for painting so I go bold! Not so unusual for me: going back to an old style of mine.

Heather, thank you. It's acrylic on canvas board.

Love your very arresting style Alice. Wonderful sense of design and colour.

Wonderful style and lively use of stylised shapes and colours.

Thank you so much, Spencer. I just feel so lucky that the sleepless nights were worth it!

Question is: does this painting work? Would love to know so please do leave an honest comment…
