You are very brave continuing your art work with a fractured spine, you must be in a lot of pain. I’m glad you do, this is wonderful and I wish you a very speedy recovery.

Thank you so much Jaqueline. I really appreciate your comments. It’s slowly improving and I hope I can paint for longer soon.

So beautifully painted Carole, lovely composition

Was inspired by watching a woman in Spain catching pomegranates while her husband was hitting the bush with a stick. Used water soluble oil pastels for the background on a primed canvas board. Used a variety of oil pastels for the rest of the painting. A tiny drop of oil helped with the blending and a couple of prisma coloured pencils for detail. Enjoyed painting this but it took forever, as I can only paint for half an hour because of a fractured spine. 30 cm x 30 cm.
