Lovely painting Tessa , your certainly in the painting mood at the moment three excellent postings.

Love the diagonal composition and the richness of the foliage and sky against the black. Really beautiful Tessa.

Love this one, bold and confident work

Oh, and this really good too

I really like this, especially the spare ribbony look of the undergrowth.

Love it. Good to see how well the gouache has responded to a black background.

Love the style of this Tessa.

Lovely composition and colours, Tessa.

Many thanks all for taking the time to look and your kind comments. Dixie, yes I was pleased with the effect on black. Will have to find some more!

I really like the effect you’ve created with the black background and the opacity of the gouache Tessa. It’s got space and movement in the tangle of branches.

Love the strong composition Tessa and the colours, the black peeping through makes it very effective

Fabulous painting Tessa - full of energy

Thank you Shaun, much appreciated.

Thank you Christine, glad you like it.

Very effective Tessa, a super painting.

Thanks so much Val and Carole. Always appreciate your comments.

I love the graphic style of this one - quite spare and yet it really captures the scene.
