Beautiful painting, Fiona, lovely colours.

Not surprised she wanted this, it's lovely. Sounds a great swap though. Look forward to your WIP!

Lovely colours and as David suggests a nice impressionistic feel to it. Very nice.

Love this Fiona. It seems impossible for me to do a looser painting like this. Colours are great.

Thank you very much everyone for your positive comments on this....I didn't like it then very much and to be honest, I still don't like it very much...lol I hadn't even finished it, it was another one of my half done WIP's!lol Thanks!

This really is a damn good oil, the colours and general design are perfect, impressionist indeed.

Certainly different Fiona, lots of movement and colours, that little touch of blue top right giving depth and distance to it. Well done

Very soothing Fiona

Impressively Monet-like and I like.

Like the impressionistic feel and colours in this one, Fiona (and the distinctive way you've painted those dark green leaves make it recognisable as one of yours!)

A real stunner Fiona! What a lucky lady she was to receive this glorious oil painting.

Oil on board. Apologies for reflection. I did this last year at Glenwhan gardens with my oil class, we were there again today to paint and I was reunited with the painting. The owner of the garden wanted it so we did a swap, she had the painting and I went home very happy with a few shrubs for my garden! It's of one of her favourite Rhododendron's and I think she said it was called Nancy Evans. I have yet another unfinished painting (WIP) from todays session.......
