The Reading Chair

Comments

Nia, this caught my eye on the gallery, it is exceptional... reading your description of wanting to capture the light on the throws you did just that and on the curtains and distant picture frame etc.. it doesn’t need a figure in the scene as it’s so appealing as it is. I love it and appreciate anyone who has the talent to observe the important factors of art 👏🏼😬

Thank you very much Tony, lovely thing to say ☺️

This is so lovely! from the thumbnails, I thought it was watercolour (and, as I am in love with watercolour, it's meant as a compliment!) So delicate, light and seemingly effortless. Love the brushstrokes! And it looks just like my armchair by the window!

Thank you so much Karine 😊

Simply gorgeous...such an inviting picture...would grace any wall!

Another beautiful painting Nia. You have certainly captured the light coming from the left. Well observed and painted.

Thank you Tessa and Thalia. Much appreciated ☺️

Fabulous Nia, this is such a lovely painting in so many different way … I definitely want to sit on that chair!

You have achieved a beautiful continuity of light, colour and shapes. A truly inviting painting Nia.

Fantastic painting, the lighting from the window is superb.

Thank you everyone

Super warm painting, Nia

Simple stunning Nia. I love your light reflections.

This is exceptional Nia - your interiors are perfect!

Silly comment! What's the chair reading? But seriously, lovely subject, beautiful colours, very restful.

Love your style💟
