Highland track by Satu Vartiainen

This I really like Satu. Love the palette and how it all works so well. Lovely job.

Stunning! Really so very effective, loose brushwork and strong image, love it, Satu

Yes it does work well Satu.

Great texture, brushwork, colour and tones Satu.

Love this Satu, the lighter clouds behind the dark rocks, perfect.

Thank you very much Jim, Thalia, John, Michael and Carole for your lovely comments!

Really like those colours and your technique Satu. Super painting!

Really like this Satu. Beautiful colours and great composition.

Full of energy and movement. Great.

Many thanks Louise, Margaret and Gudrun! There’s only four colours and a white and they blend together so well.

This has great impact Satu, a fine work and I love the style.

Thank you very much Alan for your kind comment.

Very dynamic knife marks and great colours.

Lovely textured marks, good composition and very effective light area in the sky. My sort of painting Satu.

Super knife work and limited palette Satu, very impressive.

Full of vigour and a great palette Saturday.

Thank you so much Sandra, Barry, Tessa and Carole for the lovely comments!

Satu, hello! Lovely to see your work again, and what a stunner. This reminds me very much of the colours and textures of the Highlands, I miss being there sometimes.

Hello Fiona, it’s good to be back and hopefully I’ll be able to be more regular from now on. It has been a bit tough but everything is much better so I can concentrate on painting again. Thank you for your kind comment, I’m sure that you know the Highlands so well, I’ve only been there once.

Well it's all been said and I agree whole heartedly ! All my favourite colours creating a wonderful scene. Another beauty Satu.

Thank you ever so much Avie!

I really like this palette knife technique. The result is very impressionistic.

Thank you very much Ibolya and yes, it’s a great way to paint.

I'm drawn to the sense of "wildness" in this scene, Satu. The dramatic sky and choice of colour harmony help bring a strong feeling of coherence to the composition - well done!

Thank you very much Wib for your generous comment.

Hi Satu I'm sorry to hear of your troubles over the last year or so. However I'm very pleased your husband is on the mend . I wish for you both a speedy return to a normal life now. I'll keep you in my thoughts best wishes Dennis 👍
