Well I am happy with it. A bit of finishing of Carole might you say.

Thanks John, very encouraging of you I may go back to it in a while, fed up of lifting out, redoing and still wrong. I did this in pastel a while ago and found it easier!

It's the composition Carole, has that something about it, the leaves all in the right place.

Thanks John glad it has something ;)

Beautiful as always, Carole. I love all the details in the flowers, bringing them forwards and adding a lot of depth to the composition.

It's just lovely Carole. Colours are great. Of course you have your standards and if you are not happy with it, take heart - others are.

Beautiful water colour, Carole.

Carole, this is beautiful, I especially like the rich colours on the top flower - and it's a lovely composition. (I think we dwell too much on what we see as imperfections in our work, when others often don't notice!)

It looks great to me, Carole.

Thank you, you are all very kind, I appreciate your encouragement :)

It's beautiful Carole, but I see what you mean. I'm sure you will go back soon and complete it.

It is a beautiful work, Carole. Certainly your gallery has a high standard and maybe you are insatisfied with this painting, but I think dissatisfaction provide incentives for improvement.

I like it Carole, as with all your lovely paintings of flowers they are first class.

Well I think it's not that bad, Carole. Approved!

Well I'd be pleased if it was mine Carole :)

Thank you Margaret, Cesare and David I appreciate your comments very much.

Nothing wrong with this Carole, those flowers are so vibrant.

Superbly painted Carole as ever , well done .

Thanks Louise and Dennis for the vote of confidence;)

Thanks Ivan, it means a lot to be approved:)

Carole, it's lovely. I quite like the quieter, less detailed leaves it brings the focus where it's most important....the flowers!

Should be in a museum..... that precise transition from green to violet.... nice handling Carole......

This is such an accomplished water colour Carole - the colours are so clean and vivid - love it

Really lovely piece, Carole! I'm running out of superlatives!
