I agree lovely colours and shadows.

Great use of colour - very clever to use the turquoise repetitively and still retain the different shapes. Really nice work.

Thanks to Petra,Thea and Carole for your encouraging remarks. I used a spotlight,angled up into the painting to get the strong shadows. Adds a better tonal extension and a bit of challenge.I was agonising a bit about this work,but now I will probably put it in a show coming up soon. Thanks again!!

This is a 14x18' still-life painted in my studio very recently. The spider orchids were curling up as I painted,lol.I love the subtle oriental greens.
