Oil sketch. Ye Old Fiddle.

Great composition, colours, shadows. Well done.

Wow that looks so good Denise the wood graining on the violin is superb.

A super well painted composition Denise.

This is great, Denise.

That’s lovely

Excellent Denise.

Superbly done Denise. Well done.

I thank you very much Sarah, Paul, Chris, Mia, Helen, Marjorie and Spencer. You have certainly made me feel much better about this painting. Even though an oil sketch, the distraction from the work going on in the garden, I didn't pay attention to the highlights and rushed it, to bring an end to it because of the distraction.

Very good Denise 🙂

This is Terrific! I love it. You seem to get better and better.

Do you still play ye olde fiddleye? I love the way you've represented that deep patina on the violin: now, I want to hear you play it!

Really good and striking Denise, and the colour of the case interior works very well. Also the details of the handle and lock, so good!

Oh wow that really is s cracker.

Marvellous work Denise. I especially like the shadows but all of it is wonderful!

Wow, excellent Denise. Love the colours and the arrangement.

An excellent still life.

Fabulous Denise, really, really well painted

Think this is a really good painting Denise, like the contrasting colours set off by the black.

Good composition Denise and love the colours

This is so good Denise.I like the little details like the catches on the case, the wood surface on the violin and the shadows.

This is brilliant Denise- Violins can be difficult to portray, but you’ve got it perfectly-
