Lovely textures in this one, Val, a hard subject well done.

I'd hang it on my wall Val, I think it's a brilliant piece.

This is absolutely brilliant Val must have taken ages! The textures are very clever and you even gave a great background. Hats off to you.

I think that there are many out there that would embrace this on their wall Val, it's damn good and different.

Clever and interesting

Really like this, Val, an interesting, bold composition and super colours and textures.

Thank you so much Cesare, Russell, Carole, Alan, Peter and Jenny, you've given my confidence a big boost.

What a challenge Val, and a great result.

Fantastic achievement Val! And in watercolour too!!

It's great. Well done

A excellent choice of composition, and have to agree with the numerous laudits attributed to this work, brilliant.

get some prints made Val, they will sell like hot cakes!Fabulous.

So clever Val and brilliantly executed. Love it!

This is marvelous Val! Cleverly painted, you've achieved the depth so well......it's looks 3D. Love the rusty texture....excellent!

The rope and chain textures are depicted here so beautifully Val.

Great textures and colour. Id put it on my wall....just haven't got the room.

Fantastic. Obvious that you enjoyed painting it.

Oh I would hang this on my wall, it's beautiful Val, love the colours used :)

A really engaging painting! Love the different textures.

Thank you so much everyone for your generous comments on this painting and for taking the time to leave them.

It's very well composed, with lovely use of positive and negative shapes as well as good contrast of textures. I'd hang it on my wall any day, Val!

Thanks Seok much appreciated.

I was tempted to try and paint this by the different textures in the two types of chain. I can't see anybody wanting to hang this on their wall but I enjoyed the painting experience which is something I've not been able to say for quite sometime. Painted in watercolour and thanks for taking a peek.
