Lol....thank you Carol. I’m more at ease with the Autumn/winter palette I think, back to my usual dull colours....lol.

Lovely lively painting Fiona. Beautiful colours.

Absolutely cracking Fiona, to me it has a very Ted Wesson feel about it but with a Fiona twist.

Posted by Barry Hulme on Sat 21 Jul 18:12:41

Barry is right it does have Wesson feel to it, well done.

Your marks have such vitality Fiona, the colours are not at all dull, lovely!

Dull colours NO. This is fab Fiona, the sky is beautiful and the foreground so good, even the bare trees are super.

Jim thank you very much! X I’ve been trying lately to add more colour to my watercolours but to be honest I haven’t liked them much. Thanks Brian, very much. Thanks very much Margaret! Oh Barry, you know how to flatter a girl....lol who doesn’t want to paint like Wesson?! When I first started doing watercolour, I would practice Ted’s trees for hours, they are the only way I can do them now......well, in a fashion. Stephen, many thanks. Thanks very much Alita, very kind.

Before reading the comments I thought 'Wesson'. Beautifully done Fiona.

Well Fiona I've just stumbled across this little gem..I like it.... the right hand side really works well it's interesting. I daren't put another one on having peaked last time I don't know if anyone has had a hatrick as such it makes me nervous... Lol

Posted by Alan Benton on Wed 25 Jul 23:16:39

Thank you Richard! Ha ha ....go on Alan, see if you can score another hat trick! Be great if the powers that be on POL ask you to do a bonus feature! Thanks very much for your comment Alan.

Fiona I really like the broad and bold brushstrokes of this one. They are executed really well to lend a simple painting with enough details. I hope that makes sens. I also like your varied browns and sepias. Very nice!
