Impression in watercolour

Margaret Attwood?

Yes!

A lovely portrait Marjorie.

Sorry Spencer! I was trying to copy and paste your comment from the “ extra post”. I wasn’t complimenting myself, honest!😳

I like the various skin tones in this Marjorie and the way you've loosely painted around her face thus making it the focus, especially those piercing blue eyes.

Lovely watercolour Marjorie, lots of depth and a great character

Amazing watercolour Marjorie, so good you did it twice!

Thanks everyone. Margaret Atwood is someone I admire. I was first made aware of her when my daughter was reading American Studies at university, 30 years ago. Her books are superb.

Yes Tessa, she deserves it!😊

Lovely work, with a delightful expression.

This is beautifully painted Marjorie, you should complement yourself it is so good.

Superb.

Majorie this is awesome. The skin tones you’ve achieved and the facial expression. So impressive and hard to do in watercolour. I could look at this for a long time as it holds my gaze. Just excellent.

Wow, thank you Karen, and Lewis, Paul and Chris, too.

Great portrait, I like the way the focus is emphasised on the face.

Super Marjorie

Love the colours used for this, beautiful watercolour Marjorie.

Lovely work, Marjorie.

Great work Marjorie

Great lady. Great portrait Marjorie.

I absolutely love this portrait - a stunning face, full of expression and beautifully painted

This is so expressive, Marjorie - love that twinkle in the eye and that enigmatic smile! Your washes are lovely -muted, jewel-like and translucent. Beautiful work!

Very nice Marjorie.

Almost missed this one. Wonderful watercolour, Marjorie. I hope your interest in watercolour will increase!

Thank you to everyone for all the lovely comments. And yes Cesare, I’ve already stretched some paper but Covid has struck ( Ralph) and possibly me. But thank goodness for vaccines!

Tremendous watercolour and writer! Really good job!

Just brilliant!
