Daily painting by Marjorie Firth

Brilliant, can almost smell the garlic

Simple subject expertly painted Marjorie.

Yes, simple but superb Marjorie, great style and marks.

Just an exercise maybe, ...good enough to frame. A lovely simple piece really well painted. Not cluttered, nice background and the garlic just spot on. Sometimes simple is beautiful, as this is.

Thy daily bread is great Marjorie

Very many thanks everyone, am getting interested in ordinary everyday objects again, garlic is quite fascinating to study - some people will think that is weird( not you lot of course!).

Well, bless me, this is not recognisably yours...what a change! Very tactile..I love the contrast between man-made and organic and neither elements are over done. Also very impressed by the simplicity and composition. First class, M!

Who would have thought a garlic press would make such an interesting painting. Super work Marjorie and I absolutely love your background colour.

Thanks Roger and Val!

Great painting, Marjorie - you've got the texture of the metal and the garlic just right... lovely piece of work.

Beautifully painted Marjorie

Simple yet so very evocative. This is beautifully painted, Marjorie.
