Statue with Lion

Comments

This is wonderful Dennis, I like much the loose washes and the limited palette.

This is a gorgeous painting, I like the solidity of the statue against the lovely light background and beautifully painted hazy trees. Your work has a really attractive style.

This is a special one, Dennis. The colours you have used on the statue are a clever combination with the subtlety of the foliage colour behind it. Really lovely.

Beautiful Dennis.

Excellent work, Dennis. I love how the use of shapes and washes leaves the image to the viewer's imagination. This is really a case of less is more.

Bravo Dennis, so well done. Difficult subject to capture without getting lost in detail, you've pulled it off a treat.

Love the colour palette in this one, Dennis (and the lion looks like it's got a wicked glint in its eye, but maybe that's just my imagination!)

Love this one, Dennis. Great colours again. Lovely!

Really like the way you've let the washes flow to almost create the form. Lovely work Dennis.

This has an air of mystery to it Dennis - nice work.
