A really bright and lively painting Satu. There is something so liberating about using a painting knife isn't the? I can see you have really enjoyed painting this.

A lovely vibrant painting Satu, I was so inspired by the knife paintings that have appeared on POL recently that I decided to try myself but I'm afraid my effort was a total disaster so I've decided to leave it to the experts! I really admire your skill.

This looks to me like a spring meadow of flowers, but in a vase! Superb colours and such a lovely freedom in the execution. A delightful painting.

I found this piece of chipwood board in our summerhouse and decided to use it. I primed it with gesso and thought it would be too rough but at the end it felt good so here is the result. I used my big palette knife again and the dimensions are 45cm x 60cm.
