Dark clouds by Satu Vartiainen

So atmospheric Satu, I see a stormy sky blending into a restless sea.

beautifully ambiguous with a limited palette David Harrison

That pink touch seems to balance against the heavier darks in the btm left. Funny that, colours or marks? Love it.

Depth, perspective and colour-work is splendid Satu. So much more exciting and powerful than a concrete, specific image.

You always seem to be able to produce something exciting Satu, even when you are just 'playing'! I think your Nordic heritage shines through in this painting.

Crashing waves on a midnight shores......wonderful atmospheric piece Satu! Thank you very much for your recent comment Satu.

Thank so much Val, David, Derek, Michael, Christine, Fiona, Dennis, Alan and David for your most generous comments! I do appreciate them a lot!

Stunning work, Satu, the colours work very well together. It is a great piece.

Just great - what more can I say

Thank you very much Cesare and Michael!

Very atmospheric beautiful

Very atmospheric, Satu, love the limited palette with just that touch of pink which finishes it off beautifully.

This is just sensational. Smashing picture Satu, really love it.

There's abstract painting, and then there's YOUR abstract painting Satu! This conjures up so many thoughts and emotions as does so much of your work. Brilliant.

One can conjure up all sorts of images in a painting like this Satu - love it - play more often!

I don't know what to say any more, your comments are so lovely and I thank you all so very much Ruthy, Jenny, Willie, Russell and Frank! Very much appreciated.

I am liking this style of painting very, very much Satu, all vey saleable I'm sure, really well done to you for producing this quality of work, and yes, I'm still envious.

Thank you very much Alan for your kind comment! There's no reason to be envious, your paintings are so fabulous and I'm a great fan of yours.

Satu, just seen this. What a powerful painting! Some beautiful contrasts of colour here and there too. Thank you so much for your comment on my cottage. Like you I did it at an afternoon group when I was stuck for what to paint. Often the quick time limited works come together surprisingly well, don't they.

I love these landscapes of yours Satu, such great artwork.

Det ulmer! Terrific painting.

They do indeed Ruth! Thank you very much for your comment! Thank you also Carole and Gudrun, very kind!

Love this tight palette. Very confident work. Lovely.

Thank you very much Sarah!
