Hi Carole many thanks for your kind words, and I love this painting of yours, amazing! I'm just starting to get to grips with watercolours after many years using nothing but oils, not going very well I'm afraid!

Thanks Norman. I think you are doing very well !!

Thank you for your comment re Dog and Group of Elephants. I love this picture of Pink Orchid in Gouache. I use Gouache but not yet accomplished as yourself but am new to pastels and think it suits my style. Robin

Carole thank you for your comment on my lion, I am still finding a subject that I favour, I see you have a leaning towards floral and they are very good.

Thanks for this stunner Carole you have inspired me.

Thanks Phil for kind comment.

This is a stunning painting the black background really makes it stand out the orchid is beautiful keep them coming. Thank you for your comments on my paintings much appreciated.

This is exquisite Carole, What did you paint on? I'm going to use my Gouache for lessons with the group. I need to stretch their interest. Trying to get them to use something different. ~ Thanks for the comment regarding my tip for Max. The painting is not really exactly like those on gallery. I Photoshopped colour out for the top one etc. Photoshop is a wonderful set of tools. I use it often.

Hi Maureen, thanks for your kind comment. I used Daler Rowney, it's like a good quality stiff cartridge paper, very nice to use. Best wishes Carole.
