Doodly iris

Lovely doodly Iris. Pretty And your touch of gold 😏💫

Thanks so much Faye, needing some encouragement ❤️😘

Think it's the time of year Carole, hopefully you will feel more inspired soon. Meanwhile this is lovely! I like the minimalist feel and as Faye said, the touch of gold.

It’s beautifully done Carole. As to your feeling uninspired, it’s that rind of year awaiting the new growth etc and shedding the winter doldrums. Just keep doodling and you will soon be back on track.

That's so sad Carole, go out and breathe some fresh air and think how wonderful it is to be able to paint such a beautiful flower as this. Inspiration is anywhere you look, with a sprinkle of imagination and you definitely have that.

Beautiful Carole, so delicate

Join the club, Carole but this is beautiful, I love the touches of gold leaf.

Painters block! Lovely little painting!

That is too beautiful! Superb!!

Thanks one and all, you are such kind people for giving me encouragement xx

This is lovely, Carole - I know what you mean about struggling for inspiration - I can't come up with new ideas but I did treat myself to some gold watercolour paint after seeing some of your previous paintings and have enjoyed playing with it.

Love the gold on the petals, Carole. Keep playing around, your inspiration will soon be back. The dreary weather this time of year doesn’t help, does it, although we’ve had beautiful sunshine the past couple of days!

I do love Iris. And this is a lovely one .

Lovely painting Carole, all those spring bulbs will be flowering soon!

Well, your 'doodling' is very lovely!

When you're stuck all you can do is doodle/paint something. This is good.

Absolutely love your Iris Carole, what super idea to add the gold. I’ve been holding my breath for the appearance of your stunning Hellebore paintings…… with bling! Mine are just beginning to flower Chin up gal…..spring is on its way!

This is great, Carole.

Aww thanks again everyone for your kind and encouraging words. Like you say Spring flowers are on their way. Hilary so pleased the gold inspired you :). Fiona hellebore on their way!

Woohoo! With bling?!

This is super Carole, I too get stuck for ideas, often for days on end, but that’s how it goes. Occasionally ideas come thick and fast, only for me to wonder how to go about implementing them.

As doodles go............ Excellent colours and execution !

You have the perfect style, regardless of your subject matter..

Excellent Carole beautifully done.

This is so pretty and delicate. I think it’s so easy to put pressure on ourselves to find inspiration and create but I feel it’s good to take time out and just play.... sometimes that’s when inspiration strikes 😊

It's a beautiful doodle

I love the touches of gold..I'm sure you will get your mojo back soon,

I do appreciate your kind words. So pleased to hear many of you have same problem ;) can’t get a daisy to look right at the moment ☹️ Fiona, hellebore, certainly with bling! 👍

Stunning work. You are inspiring me with such beautiful work

Gorgeous and I love the gold. Keep playing...: )
