Old Watering Can

Old Watering Can

Looks good, treatment nice, can super, not happy with the foreground in that the can is not connected to the surface it is on. shadows equal - the ground to the right would have picked up some "borrowed colour" from the can?

i like it :-) and for me, it does not look too dark, nice floor and wall colour :-)

Agree with Brian that perhaps a thin glaze of the local color of the watering can on parts of the ground would connect the entire painting, but other than that small point, it's a lovely piece. Congratulations on this being selected for the October gallery! It obviously works!

Cor, I'm immensely surprised, never thought my work, never mind that this painting would be chosen for the monthly gallery, but thank you all for your kind and constuctive comments. Next time Seok I will consider your advice. Thanks again.

Congratulations on this painting being chosen for the month of October :-)

well done being an editor's choice, Peter. The watering can is very well drawn, I agree with Seok, even so, it is very good work
