On the windowsill by Marjorie Firth

Beautifully painted Marjorie

Marjorie, I am drawn to that plum. It’s perfection.

Lovely work Marjorie the plum is an eye catcher

I am not generally a lover of still life and you keep trying to prove me wrong - well you are winning me over - another beauty.

Couldn't be better Marjorie

Thankyou Russell, John and Dennis. Plums...lovely to paint but I'm only a fan if they are cooked - in a little amaretto! Glad to hear it Michael - you're not won over yet...I'll have to try harder. And thanks Dennis for all your supportive comments.

It's lovely and I do think that plum is very juicy

Lovely work Marjorie...plumptious. That plum has got us all salivating. I'm putting the custard on now.

Many thanks, Maureen and Lewis - the pomegranate is feeling a little neglected....

Lovely composition and painting Marjorie

Marjorie they are both the stars for me, cracking still life. May I ask how you get that really dark shadow on the plum?

Lovely light Marjorie the fruits look real.

... that lovely soft touch ....

Thanks very much David! Fiona, I just went for it with a mix of ult blue, crimson and a touch of black. And many thanks Carole and Gudrun.

Thanks Marjorie.

Beautiful painting Marjorie.

Thank a lot Sandra!

Mouthwatering Marjorie. I could eat that plum :)

Too late Sarah! Perhaps a few pom seeds? Thanks for the comment.

Incredible light and beautiful fruit Marjorie!

Superb, Marjorie. Just love the wonderful confident brushwork and the very effective sliver of light.
