I can sense a sigh of relief here Fiona….I always like the way you get the colours and shapes run into each other.

Beautiful free style Fiona.

WOW,WOW!!!!!!!!!!! How do you do it, this is a cracker in my book. Loose but fabulous choice of colours, simple and straight to the point! Put simply a masterclass in watercolour painting and in my mind you have a talent second to none! There I’ve said it. 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Fabulous painting Fiona

Lovely work. Loose and natural with restrained use of colour and dynamic tonally

Great tones Fiona producing a painting that jumped put at me. Almost makes me want to break out the watercolours but I’ll leave that to those that can and enjoy just looking!

11”x9” watercolour on Arches. Painted from an earlier sketch I did before moving from Galloway. The fertile land of the Carse leads down to the Cree Estuary, perfect for the dairy herds that graze the land.
