Don't blame you Thalia lovely work

Lovely loose pen and wash, Thalia. You always manage to catch the atmosphere of the subject.

It's actually pure watercolour, not line and wash Seth! Thank you Dennis, Dennis, and Seth. I really enjoyed the whole day! Siggiewi is on Malta, so couldn't get my oils over there, Too heavy for the old girl to manage as a foot passenger on the ferry!!!

Two super paintings Thalia. Buses are a pain sometimes aren't they? :)

Profuse apologies Seth you're absolutely right...senior moment again!! It is indeed line and wash...I don't normally do line and wash!!! So very sorry Seth!!!

Great work, Thalia. Good to see the sketches of the same place, and I look forward to seeing the final paintings.

Nice, fresh watercolour.

Haha. I know all about senior moments. I did wonder how you got such thin, delicate lines with watercolour.

Glad you like them everybody, thank you very much Louise, Lewis, and Stephen. The tiny oil is actually part of the final commission. It will be two tiny oils and a medium sized oil, all on canvas.

Lovely work Thalia: peaceful colours and scene.

Two beautiful paintings in your unmistakable colours and style, Thalia.

Thank you Tessa, Siggiewi is known as the Gozo of Malta, it's an unusually quiet town!!! Except at Festa!

One word Thalia - Great !

Lovely sketch, Thalia as is the oil but slow down! What's the hurry!

Love it :)

You're absolutely spot on Willie! Never enough hours in the day and yes I need to slow down and think things through more! Thank you , Willie, Richard and Alan.

I was commissioned to do 3 oils for Maltese who have moved from Siggiewi to Australia. I decided to do watercolour studies and some quick sketches to paint the oils from. This was the last of the 3, painted in the late afternoon. All was going well until a bus parked in front of me for ages! Of all that I did last Tuesday, this is my favourite...decided to leave the bus out!!!
