Very dramatic and full of texture, love the mark making :)

A striking and dramatic landscape. The use of charcoal and chalk giving some interesting tonal values. An interesting and well executed project.

As Lesley says, the gestural marks are superb. They give it life and movement.

Much effective Satu with great textures.

Great outcome Satu - love the marks

Many many thanks Lesley, Andre, Marjorie, Cesare, Michael and Ivan for your comments! Always much appreciated.

This is a very useful project to undertake, and is very satisfying by the look of the end result, all excellent Satu, bold and decisive.

Really dramatic, with some great marks in there.

Thank you very much Alan and Sharon!

Well Satu your classroom project was a success very nice.

Thank you very much Dennis!

Lovely tones and great light on this Satu, well done!

You must be the leader of this group Satu with such smashing work as this.

What a kind thing to say Derek, thank you so much! It is a good group with several excellent painters.

Full of energy and imagination......... for me it's quite apocalyptic ..... with the forces of evil trying to take control ! so many more paintings here than on FB so I've missed lots. Keep up the good work it's always a pleasure to see.

Thank you very much Avril for your kind comment! I'll post more now on my new FB page that I finally managed to do with the help of my daughter.

This is fabulous, Satu! Loads of textures and lines, but what's most evident in this piece is your excellent draughtsmanship. Bold, dynamic and full of life!

You are always so kind Seok, thank you so much!

New project within my Thursday group, landscape. Cartridge paper, inks, charcoal, chalk and whatever you fancied to paint with. The aim was to create different tonal values and textures using only black and white. The reference photo was coloured.
