The glass sparkles and sweets like gems Diana. Love the foreground colour...

Improving on your work is hard Diana, but you did it. Lovely.

The painting works very well, particularly the distortions created by the glasses.

Wow, Diana, this is super. Beautifully painted glass and strong colours. Well done!

Full of interest, beautiful.

Super painting Diana, hard to re do something

Thank you Carole. I’m delighted you think so because the previous one got very muddy That’s great to read Jim. If I feel that something has failed, I’m determined to work on the faults. Thank you William. I do love looking at objects through glass, particularly lights. Thank you Mia. I’m gradually getting braces with first application strength of colour. Thank you do much for your interest Denise. Much appreciated. Thank you Heather. You’re right, it’s often the case that the first one is the better !

Brilliantly done as usual Diana. Love the candle !!

I love painting glass too, this is great - well done!

The whole painting sparkles Diana

Gorgeous sparkle emitted from the glasses and rosy edges which add lustre and glint.

Thank you Audrey. I started this second version a while ago then got distracted with new paintings. I find it difficult to return to a piece after I’ve lost the momentum. Thank you Marion. It’s a fascinating subject to paint. I love the distortion of objects through it Thank you Russell. I think watercolour is ideal for painting the translucency. Thank you Angela. The bottom of the cake was in more shadow which really brought out the highlights of the candle area. I struggled to capture it as colour mixing isn’t my strong point

Stunning work Diana love it

Beautiful glass work Diana and so well composed.

Absolutely love your colour contrasts Diana.

Thank you Dennis, George and Sandra. Great to have your interest
