You have a lovely loose style Shirley, glad you're back into painting again.

Agree, nice and loose, love the way you've avoided trying to paint up to the lines. Nice one.

A lovely, loose still life Shirley.

Gorgeous colours. Like the style too. I like how you have used the washes.

I think it's taking a few of us some time to get back into the swing of things Shirley! This is lovely and typical of your loose style.

Shirley a great little piece. You know what I love about it the most....it's all the outlines, especially around the jug, and oranges.

Thank you so much Alan, Andre, Sarah, Gudrun, Christine and Fiona, for all your encouragement! First go was torn up. Then second go was a bit better. Onwards and upwards!

I like the sketchy feel to this Shirley.
