Superb painting Helen love the pattern on the shell and the colours.

Wonderful composition so well painted.

Great composition Helen- the tortoise and the undergrowth

Oh Aubrey is a beauty!

Thank you for your encouraging comments. They are much appreciated

Ah, he is lovely! I like the sheen on his shell and the detail on the clover leaves. Can just imagine him making his way through it!

I absolutely love his name! It’s terrific Helen, especially the ridges on his shell.

Well painted really good composition and Aubrey is lovely.

Aubrey is gorgeous. A superb painting Helen. I love the clover and the patterning on the shell.

A beautiful painting Helen!

This is so different and the tortoise looks very inquisitive. A lovely painting Helen.

Like your use of colour and that shell is SO good!

Aubrey looks to be a real character. Well painted Helen.

Good morning, Aubrey. My tortoise was very fond of clover (and fonder of tomatoes and strawberries). Sadly, the English climate got him in the end.

Well painted. I like that you’ve painted him in a setting which works so well. Don’t you just love the face of a tortoise!

Gorgeous Helen, love your palette here and the way you’ve depicted the shell, grass and clover

What a beauty, great portrait of Aubrey.

A great painting, takes me back to my childhood when a had a tortoise called Horace. Superb patterning on his shell.

Beautifully done Helen.
