Nobody paints glass like you Diana. Amazing work, dazzling in fact.

Having painted glassware many times, I Really Appreciate all this effort!

Stunning work Diana. So much control and all the subtle gradations of colours – wow!

Superb work Diana! The glasses are sparkling and squeaky clean!

Well done the glass is perfect in my opinion, a great picture.

Poor you wonderful Diana

Before i saw who painted this i knew it was you. You are our glass lady. Stunning Diana.

Lovely work Diana

Diana, you're a magician! Fantastic! Didn't you mention something about dead daffs a while ago? Lol

I am sure you will find something to WOW us all , as usual another unique painting well done Diana.

Just incredible Diana, so much detail seeing glass through glass and then the reflections as well. I repeat, incredible.

Jim- Thank you. I have had this drawn out for over a year. I just never found the confidence to do it! Skylar- Thank you. Lots of watery washes work well in Watercolour Deflect- Thank you very much. Sometimes, I felt out of control and I could still have gone darker in places. Nandhini- Thank you so much. Painting on a large scale is different because you have to keep viewing it from a distance Lesley- Thank you. I do love painting glass but want s break after that lot! Dennis- Thanks. Just got a new one fitted! Thank you Peter, I love the idea of having my own style. Sarah- thank you. It's lovely to hear from you. Thank you Fiona. Yes, you did and Zim so pleased that you reminded me. I'll get onto the dead daffs Tao- Thank you for your loyal support This has been a challenge in having patience as I lose interest after a few days!

Val- Thank you. It's involved a lot of concentration and observation. I actually have had a headache !

Beautiful, Diana. Love the violet colour in the background (and what a challenge to paint it on full imperial!)

Perfect, you do these so well Diana, beautiful depiction of glass.

Beautifully painted Diana, the glass is wondeful

Amazing painting, Diana, a challenge you alone can face successfully. You have a great skill and strong perseverance.

Wow and wow again Diana. This is exceptional work, I wouldn't know where to begin. I can't stop looking at it!

Only one word - Superb!

This is stupendously fantastic Diana - Queen of Reflections. I'm surprised it only took you several days to do. What next, you ask - absolutely anything!!!

Wonderful title trumped by the brilliant painting -just wonderful.

They look very glassy Diana, very well observed and painted.

Willie- Thank you for taking time to leave such positive feedback. Much appreciated Ibolya- Thanks. I'm glad that you think it looks glassy. If Idbeen braver, I would throw over some loose paint to break up the rather clinical feel.

That's a huge scale and very well done Diana, worked out well.

Superb ! Love the shapes and subdued colours - you've done a great job here.

Alan -thank you. I'm happy with it as an exercise but think it's clinical and lacking in a bit of character Gudrun- Ghank you. When these full sheets are framed, they're so heavy! Acrilan- Thank you I thought it was lacking in colour but somehow, I think that works

Outstanding work Diana, I wish I could paint like this. Adam

Thank you Adam. I’m pleased that you like it.

Full imperial 20x32'' watercolour on Saunders Waterford rough. Medium weight. I attempted this painting a long time ago on a smaller scale. This time I wanted to improve the clarity of the glass without being too tight. I had a go at adding the checked tea towel under the glasses too. It's taken several days and I don't want to risk overworking Now. , what to do next!
