Seven Brushes by Amanda Bates

I can see Amanda that you never suffer from 'artist's block'! A lovely painting!

I'm thinking of pencils, next... in this proto-series

Lovely simple idea very well executed.

Thank you, Thea. I like simple, especially for still life. As long as there's a hint of a narrative there.

This is so cute, if you can call a painting with brushes cute… I guess we artists just get all 'gooey' over good art material… Anyway, this is lovely!

Very good composition Amanda, simple but so effective and eye catching. Also, I like the way you've taken the top off the one on the right, whole brushes wouldn't have worked as well. It's a good idea to paint things we're familiar with I think!

Great composition Amanda and well painted.

A simple subject matter, something I would never think to paint, as usual to have made this into an enjoyable piece of work to look at...well done...
