Field of Gold

Love the painting , the texture is really good. It seems that the rapeseed has suddenly overtaken the countryside, I was out to day and there are yellow fields as far as you can see. I does look unreal as if someone has gone mad with a spray gun.

Great vigorous texture there Tessa.

Firstly I love the palette Tessa…..then there’s the gorgeous thick paint and that slice of brightness in the distance. Really like it.

Nicely done Tessa.

Fab picture Tessa

I really like this Tessa, lovely colours, texture, and loose approach.

Looks fantastic Tessa, I’ve noticed the yellow fields everywhere at the moment.

Like this alot Tessa great foreground and textures.

Many thanks to you all for looking and commenting. 👏👍😊

I really like the thick application of paint. It's very effective.

Thank you Peter-quite fun to do, using palette knife which makes it easier to paint over wet oil paint.

And - lovely thick paint. It's a plein air, so you could work it up in the studio, paint a bigger version: I wouldn't personally want to change this one, but it'd make an excellent study for a bigger piece.

Ah thank you Robert, much appreciated. I’m thinking of doing a few of these small sketches and then work up as you say into a bigger version.

Lovely impasto work and rich textures in this lovely spring painting Tessa.

I really love this painting Tessa. I love the colours and the texture is beautiful! I can almost feel it from here!

Lovely song Tessa and fab painting.

I think this is a wonderful painting, love it.

Really like this, lovely work.

Thank you so much Carole, Diane, Sylvia, Valerie and Andrew for your lovely comments which are really valued and spur me on when I have doubts and lack inspiration! I really didn’t expect such a good response to this one. x

I think it's lovely Tessa and I really like the thickness of the paint which works well in this landscape.

Thanks again Heather and Coral. Glad you like the impasto, always fun to use!

Looks great Tessa.

Like the textures and colours in this, Tessa.

Seems the textures are a hit, thank you ladies! Always appreciated. x

A super painting with great textures and colours.

Love the colours and textures Tessa, really well done!

Splendid work Tessa.

Thanks so much Spencer, Romila and Michael . Much appreciated. 👍

Love this. Nice thick paint.

Thank you Shirley. You are a wizard with impasto, so glad you like it.

Very beautiful work. I like the perfect use of texture and the selection of a difficult color range.

Thank you Lea, glad you like the colours.

Only just spotted this one Tessa, it's lovely! Love the impasto and the muted colours with that zing of yellow.

Thanks so much Sarah.
