Fantastic Michael! Gorgeous orangey pink!

Love it Michael, very striking!

Thanks very much Fiona. I've enjoyed looking at your work and you are clearly talented. Block.....I see youv'e tried digital, which I find is so convenient because at the moment you may feel like painting the tools are already beside you and you simply pick them up. A tablet and a stylus and you're away. I did this painting using my iPad, a programme called Artrage which you can download for £3.99 and a stylus - The Friendly Swede Disc Stylus, (2 Pack) which I got from Amazon. I think you'll be surprised how much you'll enjoy it and the results you will get.

lovely Michael powerful painting

I just read your comment to Fiona ill get art rage if I can as you say its convenient , im not a serious painter its just fun I don't want to have a lot of hassle , it seems very hard for some to understand , I had to put up with quite a few insulting remarks when I first came on p o l

Thanks Dennis. You're an excellent painter. I've looked at a few programmes and find Artrage the best for me. I find the stylus is important too. The one I mentioned is good value and works great. As long as wer'e enjoying it Dennis I wouldn't bother about the insults. It's just another box of tools to me. We can both do the tradional method. Remember when the printing press was invented? Caxton got some insults too. Incidentally, I used to be a professional insult-taker - I used to get paid for it. Bring it on. Enjoy your art Dennis.

Lovely composition with gorgeous matching colours, Michael.

Thanks for your kind comments Cesare. You are an excellent draughtsman and colour-worker.
