The Swimmers revised

A very interesting composition splendidly painted.

Yes it’s finished Carole, an excellent painting to be proud of.

Love this Carole 😀

Another splendid painting, Carole (hope he makes it to the water!)

Very richly depicted sea, makes the image zing!

Very nice Carole looks like fun.

Thank you for your lovely comments Stephen, Alan, Wendy, Willie, Frank and Dennis. I did struggle with this as the figures are a bit undeveloped and I’m not very good at painting small things because of very arthritic hands. I like using water mixable oils as they have a lovely feel without the unpleasant odours and messiness of oils. Clearing up is much easier. Hope you are all safe and well.🌞🌞🌞

Cracking painting Carole, I just love the rich colours and textures you have achieved with the water mixable oils. A difficult subject very well painted in my book.

This scene really invites the viewer's participation. It's super, Carole!

So much to like in this painting Carole - it’s just great!!

Thank you for your generous comments Barry, Seok, and Shaun.

Love the changing colours and movement of the sea. I particularly like the guy under the water - not an easy thing to achieve.

Love this Carole. I’ve thought about using water mixable oils and your result is lovely. I really like the way you’ve painted the submerged swimmer.

Yes very well arranged loved the other and also admire bravery successful also

I’ve a set of water mixable oils, I haven’t been brave enough to try them out properly. This, however, is work to be proud of.

Beautifully composed scene Carole and wonderfully painted. I have been pondering about watermixable oils.
