apple blossom by lilias sneddon

Lovely 'pinkness' to this painting - if you know what I mean. It is a difficult colour to work with when there is a lot of it, but you have done a wonderful job. The toning peachy shades and fresh greens are a perfect foil as well. Has a very Japanese, delicate feel to it.

I agree...pinks are difficult together, but you have used very good contrasts. Lovely fragile blossoms.

Well painted, you have got the colours just right too.

Agree with all above, I would have shied away from trying this - you've suggested these delicate pinks very well, though.

thanks to you all, as i said it was difficult but i was pleased with the end result and its nice when you get such satisfactory comments from friends [ i do class you all as friends ] lilias
