Messing about

Comments

I do like this a lot Marjorie, it a bit like looking through frosted glass , see a image just about . You have done a superb job of painting it.

You mess about quite well Marjorie.

Thanks, yes, messing about is good…..it gets rid of what has gone before 😖😁

This is really unusual Marjorie. To me it’s looking through a window covered in condensation to give it that mysterious view. Is it you we are looking at?

Really interesting Marjorie! I’m liking it very much…

Interesting painting Marjorie - like looking through a voile curtain.

Interesting and unusual Marjorie.

Yes, Spencer, it’s me. Thanks for the comments - they’re are interesting too.😄

Beautiful painting Marjorie. Understated but so effective.

Wow another Marjorie fabulous touch. A beauty 😍

Yes I really like the idea of this one. Loads of good stuff going on. Keep working on this theme of misty and yet suggestive.

Captivating, I really like the effect.

Like this softness Marjorie, works very well.

Looks like you had fun here Marjorie. Love the light flooding through the window hitting the book and arm of the chair. A lovely harmony of colours and shapes and the softness of them merging. Very inspirational.

Enigmatic Marjorie, I think it's brilliant, the light and colours are gorgeous and the 'detailed' hand at the centre of the piece is a master stroke - brilliant!

Wonderful painting, Marjorie - you've created a quite unique style of painting, and a sense of mystery and wonder...

Love the almost pastel shades you have used with your oils. Has a very lovely look and feel to this painting. Like a lazy afternoon.

Love the suggestive wistful air this has

Lovely mystical view and frosted imagery, super!

I like it, it has a ghostly dreamlike quality.

Like this messing Marjorie, has a lovely quality to it

It does us good, a bit of messing about! This seems a very thoughtful piece Marjorie, which could go on to become something more complete? Also it could be appropriate for the March ‘hidden faces’ challenge. You have used a very light touch which I like.

Beautiful style and palette Marjorie, a lovely piece..

This feels almost nostalgic in a way. I really like it.

Very impressive painting, Marjorie, with a bit of mistery.

Lovely work Marjorie,

Thank you all very much for all the super comments - you surprised me!

Its like looking at someone through a fine curtain relaxing in the glow of firelight whilst reading a good book. What a fantastic effect you've achieved Marjorie.

Love it, love it, love it!!! Superb, Marjorie.

Very striking. First impression is that it is not your usual style and one would be tempted to think it was out of your comfort zone. But it is so accomplished it clearly is well within your comfort zone.

This is just beautiful, Marjorie.

Val, Tony, Maureen and Ellen, thanks and much appreciation for your comments.

Wow, Marjorie! This is lovely!
