Perfect and superb. Sublime painting Satu

Posted by Dennis Rounding on Wed 04 Nov 18:32:36

Like Alan and Dennis say, this is fabulous. I suspect you've looked at it so long you can't see it anymore! The textures and strokes are just right.

Posted by Gudrun Ståhl Sharpley on Wed 04 Nov 19:25:39

Lovely atmosphere Satu! It has a glistening light to it just like after a rain storm woul have.

Posted by Sarah Bottjer on Wed 04 Nov 19:52:59

Wow, this is beautiful Satu, please don't do anything more to it!

Posted by Frank Bingley on Wed 04 Nov 19:54:44

I'm not commenting so much these days unless something really catches my eye - you've guessed it - this really stood out for me - well I'm sure about it even if you aren't Gudren - it's a stunner - colours composition and great marks. I see even Frank who is not so keen on abstracts and semi abstracts is singing its praises and you can't say more than that.

Posted by Michael Edwards on Wed 04 Nov 21:48:12

Superb, love this Satu the colours and the subject in your unique style.

I don't think you need to do anything else to it at all, it is lovely and dramatic!

Posted by Jenny Moed-Korpela on Thu 05 Nov 02:07:54

No don't do anything more now Satu - you have created a most beautiful painting. It is so expressive.

Posted by Julie Bosley on Thu 05 Nov 06:52:57

Fabulous Satu, my comments echo Christine's - a really happy painting. Sun, sea and sand in a perfect combination of colours.

Many many thanks Cesare, Marjorie, Glennis, Jenny, Julie and Jenny for your lovely comments!

It's all been said, Satu! This piece is just wonderful - I particularly like the "darks" and the contrasting "whites" in the middle-ground. What size is it?

Posted by Lionel Simister on Thu 05 Nov 13:28:28

Bags full of atmosphere, Satu, with stunning mark-making and palette. Gorgeous!

Leave it alone Satu it's a beauty , when I finish a painting I put it away for two hours give it one final look and then frame it or dump it ....<br />That's a painting would grace any wall , excellent

Posted by Dermot Brennan on Sat 07 Nov 08:32:53
