Beyond the Bulrushes by Fiona Phipps

Beautiful Fiona 😍

Very very nice Fiona - and stylish I might add!

Gorgeous!! Love the abstract way you’ve put the paint on Fiona:-)) perfect

Beautiful and subtle and almost oriental in its minimalism. My garden looks a bit like this today!!

Love it as it is Fiona ... less is more!

Super, atmospheric painting Fiona.

Very well done, Fiona!

A misty, murky day. Beautifully painted.

Faye, Marjorie, Rachel, Sarah, Heather, Lynn, David…..glad you like it, and thank you very much for leaving lovely comments. I think I’ll leave it as it is…..

Like this Fiona, you’re right a little something on the foreground left. Really like the atmosphere in this. (A couple of frogs, a donkey and a heron flying over would finish it off. Lol.)

😂 I was thinking of something like a Hippo John…..what do you think?! Thank you for your input 👍 Thank you Lewis, appreciated.

Maybe the Lady of The Lake and Excalibur :-). Seriously, it’s great as it is.

Simplicity at its best, Fiona. Beautifully atmospheric.

Nothing less than something big from Scotland, the Loch Ness Monster.

Another beautiful loch Fiona, I've always admired your paintings,

Very atmospheric and well painted.

Beautifully done Fiona , and beautiful as it stands no need for any more.

Beautiful and atmospheric Fiona, like it very much. One of those occasions when less is more!

Lovely as it is!

Andrew, Carole, John 🦕 Lesley, Stephen, Paul, Brian, Sarah…..thank you for your thoughts and humour…..love reading your comments…..I’m glad I had restraint in the bulrush department. Thanks for your input.

Brilliant Fiona, how on earth do you make so little say so much?! I hope you don't take that the wrong way Fiona, it's not meant to be insulting in any way!

Love it as it is! No bulrushes1 They'd distract...

Lovely Fiona - love the colours.

A truly artistic mind Fiona. You know how to capture an atmosphere.

This is a cracker Fiona. Expressive, atmospheric and mysterious

Fiona, You are creating beautiful paintings these days. Doesn't really need anything added.

This is lovely! It doesn’t need anything added to the foreground, you’ve got reflections anyway, why would you want to confuse the issue! I like the touch of possibly indigo, difficult to tell exactly but it was needed. Mind you… a basking Cayman would possibly add interest!

A lovely, almost abstract feel to it Fiona. I really like the soft merging out of the inks.

Ah! One of those paintings that really gets the viewer's imagination working! Lovely.

Not at all Russell, I like simple I’m not skilled enough to do complicated. Thank you. Thalia, Dympna, Chris, Martin, George, Alan, David, Alex……I’m bowled over by your kind and generous comments, thank you all very much. Glad I didn’t go overboard with the reeds.

Lovely work Fiona.

On the contrary Fiona, you are very skilful, the was my point.

What an exciting painting Fiona.

So effective and the subtle relections are a treat Fiona.

Less is more... a very appealing abstracted view Fiona.

Russell, thank you that’s a very kind thing to say. I didn’t take your initial comment as an insult at all, I’m pleased you liked the simplicity. I don’t see myself as being very good at this art thing……😂

Spencer, Shaun, Diane……many thanks for your comments.

Thanks very much Val!

This is sublime and so accomplished.

Thank you so much Cheryl and Tim, you are very kind.
