This is excellent, very much in the style of Rembrandt.

Certainly is lively and still your glowing colours Carole. Agree with Peter, like the old masters’ styles.

Superb painting Carole.

I have an old olive pot like that Carole, but with one handle. Hope it’ll last a while longer, it’s cracking. I always love rustic objects like this, a very nice painting.

Great job Carole, it is lively. Colour of leaves is gorgeous.

The dark works perfectly and the colours are perfect Carole.

Good to see the olives, and with some leaves, in traditional containers - lovely painting, Carole!

Love the glow of the urn. I like the way you tied the top of the urn together with the fruit. A lovely painting.

First oil painting I have done in ages. The subject is not a very colourful one, so I struggled to make this look a bit lively. I don’t normally do dark paintings so this was a new experience and challenge for me. Oil on black canvas, 10” x 12”.
