This is absolutely spectacular, Petra! Love the way you use such run-off-the-mill items to create such special pieces. Agree with everyone - brilliant!

Just recently I've not been able to comment on your paintings as they are actually so good.! My new plan is to wait for everyone elses comments and then just say that I agree with them all :)

Oil on canvas 50 x 50 cms (20" x 20") deep edge. I like the contrast of the vibrant orange colour with the silver. I tried to enlarge the subject of the painting to fill the canvas
