It's lovely Jenny, glad you persevered 😃

I think they're all quality Jenny superbly done

Thank you Jenny and this isreally great !!!

It's a good style Jenny, don't wash your hands of it too quickly!

What's not to like, Jenny? This is great...I love the design element in your work, I wish I could paint this way.

As usual Jenny, just delightful... that looks like the Heron who ravaged my pond ☹️.

I like it - to me it looks part psychedelic and part Japanese print! (Which is meant as a compliment)😃

I think Lewis got it right. "What's not to like"? Highly inventive, I'd say, and a pleasure to look at AND the composition looks fine to my eye. Brian

Thanks very much everyone for your encouraging comments. I should perhaps have added that of all the versions I've done I am most happy with this one, but it is sometimes difficult to see past the faults we perceive in our own work, which is why feedback on POL is so useful.

But each one has its own uniqueness Jenny and you have tremendous skill and style. Don’t give up on it.

Really like this Jenny.

Loving the colours and textures, phenomenal... this is superb!

I love the peachy colours and a great composition Jenny, I like your painting very much.

Thanks very much Fiona, Richard, Ian and Carole. All the comments I get are really appreciated and help me to keep going with this type of thing - I often think I should perhaps be doing more 'proper' watercolour paintings, although this is the style which seems to come most naturally to me.

lovely I like the style

Thanks very much, Anne.

I've tried lots of variations of this basic composition and not been happy with any of them. I'm thoroughly fed up with it now, and of wasting paper, so this will be the last!

Jenny Harris

I paint mainly in watercolour, often including other media such as pen and ink, pastel or collage. My main interest is in colour and design and most of my work is quite stylised and often illustrative. I enjoy experimenting with acrylic inks, particularly using cling film to create texture, and…
