Beautiful painting, Carole.

Speaking as a heavy-handed presser-oner, you have captured the light delicacy of the petals really well.

Posted by Ian Gordon Craig on Mon 30 Sep 14:10:12

Brilliant, Carole! I like the haptic effect of the stamens.

Posted by Detlev Bucks on Mon 30 Sep 14:10:16

Lovely colour Carole, the dark background really sets the flowers off.

Lovely Carole - those stamens are stand out.

Posted by Heather Love on Mon 30 Sep 15:43:40

Gorgeous Carole, the gutta works well and makes the stamens stand out.

Beautiful Carole, so delicate.

Posted by Lesley Hardy on Mon 30 Sep 15:52:09

Astonishing effect, totally right...and the glorious reds in the background. A cracker!

Beautiful, or is it the e word??

What a stunner Carole. Such beautiful gradations of the blooms against that rich, glowing background is mesmerising.

Oh Carole, I haven't looked on the site much lately, only just really picking up after a long absence. This work of yours is as lovely as I remember it. Just beautiful!

So kind thanks Rosella.

Your usual stunning work Carole. Am trying to catch up on the paintings I've missed seeing while offsite, but finding the recent ones is quite difficult with this new site. I think I need to check out each gallery independently?

Posted by Sandra Kennedy on Wed 18 Dec 19:31:22

Thank you Sandra, very kind of you to trawl back. X

Posted by Carole Swingler on Wed 18 Dec 22:10:06

Very appealing in all the details. I love the light petals against the dark background and the background colours are so lovely, too! Very nice painting.
