Bishop Burn

Comments

I like that! Most unusual!!

Love the crisp freshness of this Fiona... I can we we need to have a Scottish paint off soon :)

I like your overall approach to this one Fiona. Nice loose expressive marks, the distant trees/hills are superb. I may have offset the stream a touch, but that’s a personal choice!

I love the delicate marks in the foreground Fiona.

This takes me right down that path into idyllic countryside Fiona. I really like the gentle feel here and your spontaneous markings.

I love the way you have hinted at the flowers and painted them so delicately.

Lovely composition Fiona, I love those pink flowers at the side of the burn.

Well done Fiona. I think it's a painting that makes the eyes go back for a second look. Which makes it very interesting.

like the effects and palette

Love this Fiona, I just want to walk Along here..

Thank you all for your continued encouragement and generous comments, I’m very grateful.

Love the fact you used various mediums, its work very well Fiona, love it.

I just knew this was yours, Fiona - colours and marks. Very appealing.

David, thank you.....I wonder if I throw too much at some of my paintings, I can get over enthusiastic. Thanks Marjorie, as you know I can’t resist a bit of Scribble! You will have noticed that I haven’t sent the Friday art quiz on to you, I think now the gallery is open again it’s finished. Shame, I enjoyed doing it.

Variety is the spice of life Fiona and this is a spicy composition. Perhaps your complex-self is showing through. It’s a great bonus when you enjoy doing it so much.

I like those pink delicate wild flowers, Fiona. Another lovely painting.

Michael and Ellen, thank you both very much.

Such a creative and expressive style - lovely, Fiona!

Thank you Anne, for your very kind comment.

Thanks very much Margaret.

Like it very much Fiona.

Thank you very much Sandra!

16”x14” mixed media on Saunders watercolour paper.....gouache, gesso, oil, oil pastel and chinagraph. Yes, I chucked the whole lot at this one....almost! A sort of semi abstract approach to Bishop burn which runs towards the Cree Estuary, close to Carsegowan Moss. A plantation of sicta spruce stand at the edge of the fields with the Galloway hills in the distance.
