Really excellent painting Emma, the warm and cool colours work really well together and just a lovely composition.

A real sense of movement in this image.

Oh, great stuff - wonderful movement in the thistles, grasses and sky: you should have no trouble selling this, but if I'd have painted it, I'd want to keep it.

PS - I think you can stop calling yourself an amateur now! This is top quality watercolouring.

Some plants get better with age - these thistles looked beautiful with their white seeds and withering foliage. Mixed media, 16x12"
