Comments

Happy New Year, Thea! What a gorgeous portrait! Your portraits really are improving by leaps and bounds with every new one you post. And the sunhat is just lovely. Thank you too for your very kind comments on my paintings.

She's gorgeous ! I've never attempted portraits but after seeing your lovely gallery I might have a go. One day!

By far the best on so far. This is just perfect, so happy and lively and full of character.

Agree with everyone, this is a wonderful portrait...

This is really a little gem in your gallery, Thea. She is so cute, lovely and lively painted.

How cute is that smile, captured beautifully.

Lovely and well painted, as usual may I add.

Lovely sunhat and beautiful smile, a lovely painting

It's all been said, a beautiful painting of a happy little girl.

Thank you all so much for all your very pleasing comments. Tabitha is such a character that is is nice to know that some of that has come through my portrait of her. Hopefully, when she is older she will like what I have done!

all the comments say it all, wonderful. happy new year thea, aw ra best from scotland.

Lovely. You ave captured her lovely smile as well as her hat!

superbe aquarelle, bravo pour l'expression de cette enfant. quel format ?

Thank you all for such nice comments. Thank you for the New Year wishes, Lilias - as a Scot myself I appreciate that. Alain, by 'quel format' do you mean size? If so, the painting is 25cm x 33cm. If this is not what you wanted to ask, tell me and I will try to answer your question.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!

Masterful execution of this little girl's face and the mouth - well it is brilliant. I dread painting mouths especially smiling ones . This is superbly done and soft and light handed again.

Just spotted this, Thea...Absolutely adorable...You have this ability to capture the emotions so well. A very accomplished portrait, love the spontaneity!

This is an absolute delight, she is adorable! You capture the emotions so well and the portraits look totally alive!

I did this from a photo I took of Tabitha (my granddaughter) on our recent holiday in Provence. We had to buy her a sturdy sunhat with ribbons to tie under her chin because she wouldn't keep a hat on in the sun. After initial protests, she broke into this lovely and cheeky smile. Watercolour on Langton Prestige 300lbs.

About the Artist
Thea Cable

I am a watercolourist first and foremost as I love the qualities of the medium, its riskiness and unpredictability. I started painting about 8 years ago and it has now become an integral part of my life. Hopefully, I will continue to paint into my dotage as I am given to understand that you can…
