Not the easiest subject to draw or paint for me Louise. I admire you for being brave X At least it stays still not like a cluckin chicken!

I really like the way yo have painted the jug, it has your distinctive style, lovely colours, well done Louise

Many thanks James and Petra! It was a lot more difficult than that chicken :) I was so concerned with portraying the glass, which I know that I haven't done that well, that I lost sight of the actual shape of the jug! The ellipse isn't right but at least I tried. Glass must be the most difficult thing to paint in watercolour in my opinion anyway. I'd love to see some others here so I can see where I've gone wrong :)

I think you have done a good job with a difficult subject in watercolour. It looks like a crystal jug which is a lot better than I have ever been able to come up with. It has a great 'glass' look with the light and shade and reflections. I think you should be proud of yourself in challenging yourself to do something you find difficult - it has worked out really well.

Well I think you have done incredibly well, it is so obviously a "glass" jug. Apart from the slight hiccup on the elipse it's a perfect glass jug in the inimitable Louise Naimian style IMHO :)

Well done Louise, glass is so tricky but you've managed it really well!

I don't remember ever having painted glass, so bravo to you, Louise. You made a success of this!

Glass is a subject I would never attempt Louise.....I wouldn't know how to tackle it. Well done to you for having a go, and what a great job you've done of it.

Well done for even attempting it - great painting

This is beautifully done, Louise. I think you did a great job capturing the gleaming facets of the crystal and also the three dimensional image.

Well I could tell it's glass before reading your title!

I've always found it impossibly difficult to paint glass in watercolour but attempted this morning to paint the glass jug that usually holds some of my brushes. This is the result. What with glasses and chickens, I'm possibly just putting off painting a 'proper' painting (lol)
