A big thank you to Christine, Sandra, Coral, Andrew, Heather, David and Valerie, for all your support and encouragement, whi Ch is very much appreciated.

Despite your struggle with materials you’ve done a super painting Carol, and love the rich ochres against that blue sky.

Thank you so much Fiona. The scene reminds me of lovely, warm days I used to spend on a farm full of palms, orange and lemon trees.

Fabulous Carole - great subject and beautifully painted. I agree about the papers/board for pastel work.

Thank you Shaun for your encouragement and lovely comments. Sometimes it’s just not worth trying to make do with unsuitable materials.

Lovely painting Carole.
