Superb. The colour scheme is fabulous and the light shining through the colinder is a lovely touch.

Excellent David and what a back story to it. Until you mentioned that knife I hadn't seen it that way, now I can't think of anything else!

Wonderful David, love how you’ve done that colander and those ellipses

Super painting, great reflections and I don't see the knife as being off putting.

Here is a half-sheet watercolour that was painted as a commission. The client had seen a similar painting of mine called Strawberries and Beer and wanted a new version for her partner Peter. This was the result, which won an award at a local art show. I ended up getting permission from the local brewery as the bottle of beer was too easily recognized as their product - they gratefully were happy with the painting. Some people find the knife with the red strawberry juice to be a bit off-putting.
