Towards Black Wood by Fiona Phipps

I like ths very much Fiona. It's interesting stuff this liquid charcoal and you add to it with your splashes of colour.

Lovely and that touch of ochre works really well

Very good Fiona.

Lovely Fiona. The ochre and flecks of blue do work well

It’s a superb piece Fiona , your experiment with the colours adds so much and takes it up to a higher level.I be you would give it a go getting around to feed the pheasants , and probably succeed.

There’s a nice lead in to this Fiona, through the gap and on towards the buildings in the distance

Nicely done Fiona.

Very good use of wet in wet Fiona

A beauty, and love the touch of colour Fiona. And a lovely story of part of your childhood!

Another good atmospheric picture Fiona, interesting to see you trying different media(ums?)

A very striking effect, Fiona. And the perspective into the distance is so good.

The mediums you're using really suit the subject- lovely Fiona!

It’s got a rather nice watery effect Fiona and the subtle touches of colour are nice.

I like that wiggle pathway leading into the background Fiona.

Your combination of mediums works really well Fiona, still keeping subtlety and control here. I like!

Many thanks for your generous comments, George, Heather, Denise, Christine, Paul, Frank, Stephen, Carole, Rachel, Trevor, Ann, Anne, Marjorie, John, Tessa.

The charcoal and oil pastel work really well in this Fiona.

So very effective Fiona!

Smashing Fiona.

Never used it, must investigate. I’m a big fan of regular charcoal but never used liquid charcoal, nice work here Fiona.

David, Spencer, Sylvia, Andrew, thank you very much for your encouraging feedback.

Lovely bold and loose brushwork with a smidge of colour to enhance works really well

Nice one Fiona… interesting combination which has worked well…

Thanks very much Martin and Alan……appreciate your comments.

Nice work Fiona. Loved the info too!

Thank you Diane x
