A beautiful play of colour, and those trees are so well described, one of my favourites :)

Love the colours Satu!

Agreed, splendid work Satu you have struck a chord with these paintings have'nt you, what a great well earned response you had to your last one, go you!

This is really beautiful Satu and has a real Scandinavian feel to it.

I like painting on wood - and it's obviously working for you, too.

This is just so lovely - adore the colours and the fragmented look. Delightful work.

Thank you so much Lesley, Louise, Ros, Christine, Robert and Thea for your lovely comments! Very much appreciated!

Love your new palette Satu, fresh and vibrant.

I love the colours in this Satu.

You've done it again! By the way, I am thinking about trying some panels. I also quite fancy using clear primer, but that seems to be hard to get, or perhaps I am looking in the wrong place.

A truly STUNNING piece, Satu! I absolutely love your palette, and the contrast of the dark trees against the mellow pastel colors really makes the painting sing. True excellence!

Thank you very much Fiona, Carole and Gudrun for your kind comments! Gudrun, I have heard of a clear primer but never seen any for sale. I'll ask my art shop ladies, they'll know.

Fabulous composition, fabulous colours, I think this painting is fabulous:):)

Thank you very much Sylvia, Seok and Val for your kind comments!

Thanks for information Satu. I need to get some supplies from Jacksons soon so I might dabble with the clear gesso and wooden panels. I'm getting on with my next portrait. I hope it will live up to your expectations!?

I'm sure it will Gudrun!

Hi Satu, I just wanted some info really. I noticed you have a portfolio on artist and illustrator and I've been wondering for a while about doing the same thing. Has it been worth it?

Hi Dawn, I think it has been worth it. Artists and illustrators is the best magazine and the Portfolio has many advantages. The public seems to follow it and I have had enquiries even from the States. I have sold two paintings trough it which reminds me now that I haven't updated my gallery there for a while. They also have completions and I have had one of my paintings published in the magazine. So, yes, it's worth it! Thank you Dawn for liking my work, I do appreciate it!

Thank you I will start my own portfolio at the weekend. You are very welcome about the comments I post your work is great.

Still experimenting with those wooden panels and starting to like them. I will order more and a bit bigger this time. These are only 30cm x 30cm so quite small for me. I'm also trying different colours and colour combinations to break up old habits.
