L'âne fou de Saintonge

Fantastic work with a great deal of detail.

Your patience is infinite Anne, your skill incredible and wonderful to see. Cap decidedly doffed.

Stunning Anne/ This must have taken hours of painting. Love the textures and different colours you've created in the stone.

How can you not like this? Tremendous detail and dimensionality.

Stunning...wonderful work of art..I really love your work Anne. Very motivating for me to do better my skill.

Beautiful, skilful work with extraordinary detail Anne. Love the portrayal of the stone itself. Can almost reach out and feel the stone.

Amazing work Anne!

Superb skilful pastel work Anne.

Fabulous. Great depth, it's difficult to believe this is a 2D image.

This is absolutely stunning, Anne. Superb skill!

Thanks a lot ! Your comments are so wonderfull !!! This work has needed by 100 hours I think. I am very patient effectively. I need to be very concentrated. First I love really my subject and second I "begin the matter". I always take time to look at precisely how the matter works. Sometimes subjects are very far away for me. This one is at Aulnay de Saintonge, next La Rochelle...at 500 km !

Stone me! This would have driven me up the wall trying to paint this. Brilliant.

Great comments !!! You make me feel so good !!! Longtime to be able to express the stones. Many many hours effectively to give this texture. And I am so happy when I find the way. Pastels are very nice to do this work !
