This is just brilliant, Anne! The light on the scrummy blackcurrant jam is so well done.

Wow how kind thanksto you all -it was shortlisted for the Sunday times Watercolour competition took it to the Mall galleries but was not selected for the exhibition -nearly there but not quite

Well, I wish they were all on my plate.

Mmm, delicious. Well done. Acrylic or watercolor? You mentioned watercolor competition and it looks like it could be a watercolor, but its listed as acrylic.

Great depiction of jam tarts, look as if they are straight out of the oven.

What a super painting - they are temptingly real and the jam looks very convincing.

To answer Dale Gore .I was under the impression that watercolour was watercolour's for the Times Competition but the criteria is any water based paints .Thank you for all your lovely comments

Wonderful - original subject, beautiful execution and evokes strong memories of my mother's cooking.

I love this..as a trained baker and confectioner I like it when artists decide to use cake items for painting subjects. This looks really scrummy....
