Dawn Saltpans by Thalia Stones

I'm not surprised your friend is interested in it, Thalia. It's beautiful. The sky is terrific.

What a paradise you live in Thalia. Gorgeous light.

A fascinating landscape, well painted.

It was worth painting this one Thalia.

Thank you, Seth. It's minutes from where we live, and a diving Mecca...hence my friend wants it! Yes, Ibolya, it is a paradise here, for sun and sea, the light is amazing most days. Lewis, thank you, praise indeed! These are saltpans, and some are extremely old. The shifting light in them gives wonderful subjects to paint, but the shifting light means I mainly sketch them and take photos and paint from that. John, almost every painting I've done of these areas has sold!!! And because they change all the time I never get bored with them! Added bonus!

Nice work Thalia, I particularly like the sky, I wonder if you could introduce a little of the golden sky colour into the foreground?

Love this Thalia.

Fabulous sky and a blinding sunset -well captured Thalia

Thank you Stephen, the gold is there, on left hand pan, but it's not a terribly good photo! I'd best not mess with it as it's going to a new home tomorrow! Thank you, Louise and Willie, your comments are much appreciated.

Beautiful light. Love the reflections.

Thank you Lesley for your kind comment

Love this painting Thalia, love the sky and the rock pools.

What a fabulous place to live Thalia, you have everything there!

Great light and atmosphere.

Absolutely beautiful Thalia.

Thank you, Maria, Margaret, Gudrun and Sandra, you are all very kind and encouraging
