Winter by Ian Ridley

Three lovely paintings here, Ian. You have achieved what I spend days trying to, and never manage to! Beautiful colours and textures, translucency and interest, all skillfully done. And you describe it as fun.......wonderful stuff.

I love that golden wintry feel. I also love the way you have blended the colours in your other paintings - the coral and autumn leaves - very tactile. Lovely gallery

These are all very nice, love the colour and fresh unfussed look.

The format and the liberal use of salt really makes for an eyecatching piece of work.

Lovely painting, great colours and texture ian

I like it because the techniques used to create it are secondary - in other words, you're drawn to the image long before you even think about the way it was made. Not keen on paintings which are just clever (or otherwise) examples of technique. The format is perfect, the palette beautifully chosen ... great painting.
