The sky is so full of life and colour.

Impressive sky indeed Thalia, and I also like the heavy tonal foreground.

Fantastic atmosphere and on such a small board absolutely love it Thalia.

Lovely work 😀

Didn't spot it as a Thalia right off, but as a striking work that stood out. Nice work. Powerful.

Fabulous - you are a prolific painter who never fails to impress.

Nice one, Thalia

This one is a very impressive eyecatching painting, Thalia.

How kind you all are, a huge 'thank you' to you all. I can't tell you how much I enjoyed painting both the paintings!! Thank you Stephen, Alan [as usual, I wondered whether the foreground was OTT...but if Alan approves then it's Ok!!!] Thank you Jenny, kind of you both to say that! Thank you Willie, Barry, Linda, Jim, Heather, Maureen and Cesare, you are really kind and I do so appreciate the comments, they are so helpful in knowing which paintings work and which do not!

Lovely colours and a great composition, Thalia.

Goodness me, thanks everyone for such kind and thoughtful comments, I really do appreciate them, they are so helpful! Geoff, I would love to paint it with you! Thank you Rachel, Russell, Marjorie, Carole, Sandra and Pauline! Indeed you're all so right, this is such a tiny island that when we're struck by storms we really know about it! Sheer drama!

This sky was painted yesterday morning from my studio window as the storm clouds skudded overhead in a F8 westerly. Really exciting to paint these moving clouds on a small 8x8ins board. I painted in Req'qa Point from memory, as I can't quite see it from my window! I did two tiny paintings of this exciting sky, I'll post the Xwejni one tomorrow!
