Lovely painting Jem. Always look forward to seeing your work.

Super work once again Jem and congrats on being the SAA artist of the year, good to see a watercolourist getting the award.

Hi chaps. Thank you very much. With one thing and another hardly having any time at all to paint at the moment, so have not produced a lot recently. I hope one day that will change and I can contribute properly to this forum too.

Stunning water colour Jem - the tonal contrast between the lighter sky and the willow creates a good focal point which then points down towards the far off village. I also like the far right tree as this prevents me from visually wandering off out of the picture to the right. Many congratulations for being the SAA artist of the - very well deserved as your paintings are masterpieces. Now to get a book publisher (Search Press) :-)

Fresh spontaneous - all that a good watercolour should be - two super postings Jem

Absolutely love your watercolours Jem-please write a book!

Quality over quantity - I also think you should write a book - I think it would sell well - and then you could fund me with a book lol

Thank you all, so incredibly generous as always with your comments. Joseph, I'm sure you could write a book too. Gina, likewise, your work is lovely. I'd love to work on a book, and I'm very flattered you suggest it, but currently I couldn't find the necessary time. Life isn't fair!

Another stunner Jem......add my name to the list for your book!! Congratulations by the way ref artist of the year, very well deserved.

Hi Fiona, and thank you very much, I hope your painting is going well.

My painting isn't going at all, really Jem. I've done a few daft bits & pieces but I'm putting off a 'proper' painting! Scared of failing on the first go!!!Lol. I hope your own future in painting goes from strength to strength.

Pure harmony Jem. Yes a book please
