Comments

Good old Marjorie! Good old you for persisting ... it's worth it.

A bit of cowardice here Fiona! As I said on the forum…” Teapot meets Cézanne”. Where’s the rest of it? I won’t let it lie you know, I’ll hold on to it in my files! But I like this, I do. I like the soft colours. Incidentally Heather…you’re keeping your head down…..😆

A lovely work of art, Fiona. I asked in the forum the medium you used, I can see, now, it is oils

It is a lovely teapot Fiona, you achieved the rounded shape very well. Great use of the colours too.

The colours really make this still life Fiona, it's a cracker .

John, Denise, Chris, Lesley, Shaun, Carole, Val for your supportive comments, always appreciated. Marjorie is correct, I’m a coward. You would understand if you saw the whole of the still life, I think. 😂

Oil on paper, 3 primaries. About 6 years ago I felt quite confident doing still life’s, I set up quite an extravagant arrangement to paint. I sent the photo to Marjorie who encouraged me “to get on with it”…….6 years later I’m still thinking about it! I’ve deleted the photo from my files about 3 times now but now and again it keeps coming back to to me via email from, yes you guessed…..Marjorie. This is cropped from the larger set up.
