Gentoo penguin with chick

Comments

A very attractive palette Anjana. I do like the way you have rendered the stones and pebbles and that splash of turquoise/cerulean blue here and there is gorgeous.

Very nicely painted- like it

Thank you so much Fiona and Heather, I wasn't sure if I over did the texture in the foreground so great to have your feedback. Fiona the turquoise/cerulean blue you refer to is one of the shades Moonglow(Daniel Smith) separates into. It has ultramarine blue as one of its constituent pigments, placement of it is more luck than design😊

Yes, a good combination of colours, introducing colour from the penguin into the foreground. Nicely painted watercolour Anjana.

Fabulous work, Anjana. Love the contrast of the textured foreground against the sleek and elegant shapes of the penguins.

What a lovely painting Anjana. Your palette is so appealing, the suggestion of the stones, pebbles and general warm tones really add to a very skilful, gorgeous piece of work.

Thank you so much Alan, Linda, Seok, Carole and Jennifer for your kind words.

Lovely painting using a great range of colour.

A beautiful painting Anjana.

That you Carole and Dixie 😊
