I love the simplicity of your still lives Shirley and might have already said it before. The objects are as they are and no nonsense. You done care about perspective and that gives your work an extra charm.

Lovely Shirley.

Thank you, Satu and Carole. I love your work. I think the perspective certainly got a bit stretched on the mug!

I love this. It has such warmth and it's lovely s always. I don't mind the mug. The basil is the star.

A beauty Shirley

Thank you very much! It was a very limited palette of indigo, burnt sienna and cadmium yellow, which turned out quite interesting.
