Seabirds

They're Oyster Catchers Satu and they're wonderful. You've definitely broken that block!

I love the background on this. A quirky painting and very good

Lovely, Satu, and an amusing expression of the pair.

hi satu this is absolutely beautiful . I love everything about it the texture the colour and the way its painted its quality and im so pleased to see you do it well done first class picture.

Love the way that they both look indecisive about entering the water. They seem to be saying, 'shall we go for it ?'..LOL.. I see that you're taking advantage of that urge to paint now (as I am) and it's all going rather well for you!!

Thank you ever so much Christine, Pat, Sian, Dennis and Louise for your kind comments! They help me enormously to rebuild confidence! Thank you Christine for recognising the birds, now I know what they are.

A super painting Satu - I was drawn to it immediately. I love the subject and the colours, and the loose way you have painted it. Very satisfying!

Very successful Satu and I agree with all of the above.

Greeeeeat ! Saw this and loved it immediately. Composition, palette and textures - all perfect. A lovely watery effect..... You won't have this on your hands for long! I hope you're feeling happier !

Lovely effect! Can't fault it:)

Thank you Julie, Dympna, Avril and Sarah for your lovely comments! Very much appreciated! Yes Avril, I feel happier now, thanks to all the support from my POL friends.

How beautiful and lovely: a painting with a story. I agree with Louise. Looking at it, you can imagine what the mother is telling to the little one! Stunning!

Great composition and execution; textures and colours; everything. Fab.

A lot of comments and so well deserved - nothing more to add as its all been said.

Thank you very much Mia, Gudrun and Michael for your kind comments!

Nice one Satu just love the quirky atmosphere

Great ! A couple of birds with attitude, agree with all that's been said. And so pleasing just to look at.

Thank you Jon and Sharon, very kind!

Fantastic - love everything about this one, Satu, from the suggested birds to the textured blue and white background. Really lovely work.

Thank you Thea very much!

This is fabulous, Satu! I just love the contrast of the solid dark shapes of the birds against the beautiful textured background. Superb composition and use of negative and positive spaces too!

This just jumped off the page Satu, so very eye catching, I can almost hear mother bird giving baby bird instructions, I love it.

Thank you so much Seok and Val for your lovely comments!

Love your brush marks and highlights Satu, makes for an energetic painting, lovely scene.

Thank you very much Carole!
