Sun On The Balcony by Thalia Stones

Comments

I really admire how you have achieved depth within your painting by using the archway of the window and I like the splashes of red and blue Thalia.

Like the sunny look with the brightly coloured flowers and the ancient stone.

Lovely painting makes me want the sun on my face. The flowers are so vivid against the building.

That's really kind of you all, Carole, Maureen, Dorothea, Gudrun and Margaret...sorry if I seem to be stuck on balconies at the moment!

I like the textures and the aging in the buildings, contrasting with the bright blooms -lovely painting.

This is a very old, hand carved balcony, in Mdina, the Silent City, on Malta. I wanted to create the feeling of bright sunlight on the stone and the geraniums and lobelia by using contrasts of deep darks and palish ochre.
