Craster Harbour, messed up a bit by Marjorie Firth

Have to admit the palette knife has done its job!!!<br />

Yes well done Marjorie it gives a more tactile quality

Oh yes Marjorie, &#39;messed up&#39; but still distinct, great textures and movement....love it!

It&#39;s a great painting Marjorie, the feeling of the wind blowing, is amazing, Love it :)

Welcome to the mistake club

Hi Marjorie , well I think its improved this a lot its kind of more interesting now . I definitely think its much better than before . That&#39;s it .

Yes it worked Marjorie.

Oh we all get this now and then ..... put it away for a while, do something else, then come back to it: and I bet you&#39;ll think you&#39;ve said what you wanted to say and will be happier with it. <br /><br />I like it - not too much detail, plenty of atmosphere, well painted boat, and what really transforms it into an interesting painting is your sea: it has movement, and it leads you in. I&#39;ve seen just this sort of light in a coastal scene - diffused, quite &quot;white&quot;, and I wouldn&#39;t do any more to the painting for fear of imperilling that look.

Thank you everyone - it&#39;s really kind of you to comment again. I can always tell who is writing the comment, even when it&#39;s through e-mail without a name. Everyone has their own particular style, in painting and the turn of phrase.

The knifework does give it an edge, Marjorie. It looks super.

There&#39;s a lovely summer feel to this!

Thanks Jenny. Haven&#39;t seen you around for a while.
