Five cherries by Marjorie Firth

Love that pot Marjorie with the clever reflections. Your cherries have lasted well and have worked hard for you, so you can savour the last ones. Great composition.

Cherries and painting still looking as good as ever. Think you deserve the treat of eating them.

Beautiful, love the silver and reflections. Cherries are so well painted!

You made me buy the biggest bucket of cherries today Marjorie, this is nearly as bad as your jelly baby painting…….trawling through every shop looking for a packet! I’m okay now……. I’m loving your loose expression here and that turquoise….delicious.

Thank you Carole, I’m def in cherry mode just now😆 Thank you Christine and Romila - all eaten. They’re beautiful to look at but not the best tasting of fruits. I still prefer jellybabies Fiona…..

Excellent painting Marjorie.

Well Marjorie, you’ve had your moneys worth from these little chaps… Another rather good minimalist still life set up, great job once again!

Lovely work Marjorie. The silver pot is great and the cherries look yummy.

You are really good at cherries and the reflections on the pot are superb

All I can say is it’s a beautiful painting Marjorie the cherries and the pot are excellent ,both are set of by the green cloth with those superb folds and creases .

Great use of the cherries Marjorie and a wonderfully painted pot.

amazing, i understand nothing from oil painting, just can say i love it!

Loving your cherry series - great pot!

And another great painting Marjorie - and I still don't like cherries!

Many many thanks Stephen, Alan, Lewis, Martin, Coral, Paul, Denise, Tanja, Heather and Russell!

Beautiful cherries again Marjorie and that pot is stunning!

Thank you Karen and Cheryl. It’s my daughter’s pot. I mixed my colours first ( three tones of each) and added highlights and then more if necessary. It speeded thing up and I used my palette knife to compare with the colours in front of me.

Beautifully done Marjorie. Wonderful reflections on the pot. The cherries have a gorgeous sheen and the fabric looks so real. Great work.

I love the bold colours in this one . Cherries look great!

You've certainly got your money's worth out of those delicious looking cherries Marjorie and that silver pot is incredible.

It's all been said Marjorie but it is a terrific painting the fruit and the pot sparkle together.

This is gorgeous, Marjorie! The palette and composition are stunning, and I love your very lively brushwork.

Gorgeous colours Marjorie! I don’t think cherries would last long enough to paint them in my house. Hubby loves them too much!

Thanks for all your comments Spencer, Janet, Val, Willie, Seok and Linda - cherries are on hold but they are a bit irresistible…..to eat and to paint.
