You're on a roll Michael and very prolific. That was very good advice from your teacher (and one I've learnt by many mistakes over the last few years!) . Anyway, another very good painting.

Really like the technique.

A lovely painting

Class work Michael. Still life suits you.

This is gorgeous Michael. Wonderful use of colour and shape. Superb!

Very Nice Michael...

I like this very much, good composition and interesting palette.

Like this a lot and it really well painted.

Thankyou so much for all these comments. I've not been painting much today. Abit of self doubt creeping in. I'm making progress. It's hard because my goal is not really hyper realism. I think alot of magic is lost when a painting looks like a photograph. It's important to me that they always look like paintings and retain the magic.

As with all these recent pictures it's not that I don't think they are good but I could have included more detail. But the risk of ruining them by overwork is always a fear

Very nice that some of my fellow artists think I'm coming along OK. I've been working very hard I admit mainly to improve my drawing skills but also to improve my powers of observation. Neither come easy to me. I remember my old art teacher in school advising all us pupils to draw what you see. I'm mostly self taught but I did have one private tutor for a short time. He said a good drawing will hold up a bad painting but not the other way round. It was the best lesson I've had.
