Beautiful work, Fiona...your reflections on the bowl, and tray are superb!!!Love the colours too!

Thank you ever so much everyone for your very kind words, they are a confidence booster! I should have spent more time on the garlic but my impatience won out I'm afraid.....I was getting fed up with the whole thing. It's also the first oil I've done for quite a while, about six months. Thanks again x

Beautiful blending Fiona and the colour of the copper is spot on. Those reflections are excellent

Beautifully done Fiona.

Fantastic Fiona!! That's you AND the painting. Love everything about it, the palette especially. I'm sure that's a breadstick though!
