Morning Faye and I’m so happy to receive your lovely compliment. Thank you Thank you Heather from another sprout lover. Don’t you find a huge variety of flavours? Thank you David. I love green so this was a great opportunity to mix a great variety of shades. Thank you again Mia for your interest in my work Thanks again paul. I love having the combination of tighter and lovely loose washes. Thank you Cesare. After so many years, I’m still cautious with colour strength and build up with several washes. I’m always impressed with the colour strength in your work Thank you Jenny. I agree , the green and silvery foil colours are a great combination. Thank you so much Andrea. After all this time , I feel as if My painting arm ‘is complete again’ to quote Sweeney Todd Morning Denise. Thank you from another hardened sprout lover. 👍 Hello Fiona. I was looking for that old mince pies painting when I found this old , abandoned and half worked piece.

I love your silver foil paintings Diana especially, I remember Christmas cake one and an apple one.

You always know how to bring drama into your watercolours. Never seen dramatic sprouts before!

Instantly recognisable as yours, Diana. It's super. Foil perfectly painted, and lovely little sprouts.

You so much for all the wonderful comments. I just noticed quite a few that I hadn’t responded to. Apologies for taking so long.
