Lemon Marmalade by Thalia Stones

Love the depth of colour achieved

No idea what the ebauche technique is, I'll have to look it up...but I like this.

I love paintings like this where objects seem to emerge from the dark. Lovely!

I'm with Marjorie on this - love the darks and lights.

And I'm with Lewis, no idea what 'ebauche technique' is either but I like it!

I really like the result Thalia. It certainly makes the lights and colours sing and has an air of something about it.

Thank you so much, Martin, Lewis, Marjorie, Heather, Russell, and Carole, Ebauche is a very traditional method, laying in the darks and wiping out where needed, building up the scene from there, very briefly!! Best to look it up!

Brilliantly performed Thalia, I’m with Marjorie.

Lovely Thalia. I love the depth of colour.

Very effective.

Thank you very much Fiona, Spencer, and Sandra

Lovely brushwork and great use of accents, Thalia. Super work!

Great technique Thalia - love the painting.

Wonderful!
