This is lovely Shirley

What happens Shirley is that they produce superb paintings when applied like this, top work.

Thank you very much, it is so encouraging to read these comments.

As said, you're learning fast and to turn this piece out is smashing proof.

Wonderful, Shirley.. I especially like that sky.

Beautifully atmospheric Shirley.

Love the sky , you have really captured the light and the acrylics have been layered to give great texture.

You're doing so well, Shirley! I think you've done a super job with this piece - loads of immediacy and life in this piece.

Thanks so much for all your comments! Makes me want to press on and do some more. Thank you.
