Little Doll by Satu Vartiainen

I think this is a great picture, I love the 'free' way you have painted it....well done.

Very interesting and the background sets him off nicely. Thanks for your comment by the way about the boys, yes we are beyond happy with them!!

He looks a bit gnome like Satu!

Good immediate painting Satu.

I like this, more to it than first meets the eye.

A smashing spontaneous painting Satu.

It shows your immediate reaction to the subject, which always results in a lively and interesting painting. Nice loose and unrestrained treatment as well.

I like it, Satu - it captures the essence of an old, loved toy and the immediacy of the piece is wonderful!

Mark, Debs, Christine, Louise, Jon, Fiona, Thea and Seok, thank you very much for your kind comments!

Looks very lively, almost like its going to move any minute.

It's great Satu, clearly done off the cuff with no planning and all the better for that

Thank you Kevin and Ros!

I really like this Satu. It has a sort of tactile quality which I find interesting - like felt.

Yes Satu always share your work........ it's good to look. Like the little 'sailor boy' :o)

Spontaneous and fun, so glad you shared it with us.

Reminds me of Pinocchio, a little bit!

Thank you Joseph, Carole, Val and Gudrun! He does look a bit like Pinocchio.
