Loving your 'series'. really good.

Thank you, Heather. Your kind comments are welcome and appreciated. :) I just wasn't quite sure how to reply. So, I'm hoping this is a solid way to do so.

Full of movement, a really good picture.

This is great!well done 😊

That’s a great painting Chris.

Very good, love the simplicity of the water and Velma’s shadow - a good addition to the series.

Like the style.

Inspired by looking through all the art here the last few days, I aimed to have another try of Velma in the style of another artist. This was my first bash at the great Spanish artist (one of many!), Joaquin Sorolla (1863-1923). His approach to waves seemed to really depend on whether he was going for distance scenes or more medium close-up perspective. I enjoyed this, though. Sorolla has much to teach me!
