Still life in yellow by Satu Vartiainen

Beautiful colours and light!

You've done it again. The pale greys and greens are lovely. A super composition and the touches of red and black that finish it beautifully.

I really like the red touches Satu they bring the painting to life!

I agree with the other the touches of red really make this painting and really give it a sense of depth.

Composition, colours; just the right impact.

The strong red and black used, really lifts the more pastel shades Satu....it's gorgeous!

My kind of still life : full of joy and light. Just right.

Lovely still life. I think the limited palette with the addition of some black for depth of tone works wonderfully well. Super light as well.

Ann, Avril, Christine, Kevin, Gudrun, Fiona, Sharon and Thea, thank you so much for your kind and encouraging comments! They mean a lot to me.

Red abd black work so well here Satu, love your abstracty paintings.

Thank you Carole!

Nearly missed this one Satu and I'm not sure why as it's fab! Perhaps it was the change of palette for you and don't the colours work well especially that inspired speck of red at the top balancing out the bottom section of reds and the apple. It's all very well put together!

I think the addition of the red and black really adds the zing to a very accomplished piece, Satu! I always love the way you play with the shapes in such a spontaneous manner. And I absolutely love the bold and beautiful brushwork. Just STUNNING!

Thank you Louise and Seok very much for your generous comments! Much appreciated, as always.

Interesting.
