Spotty Button Box Still Life

Lovely, Thea. It is a very fresh, clean and bright composition. I like your loose style. By the way I would like to thank you on all your comments on my paintings. I have just got back into painting myself, again, after the summer season of selling in my gallery and running my B&B.

This is so bright and cheerful. Beautiful blending of colours. Very well done.

Oh you really have mastered this style, Thea. So light, delightful and cheery. I just love it! You leave the whites to make their own impression so beautifully.....

Very colourful with very interisting watercolour techniques.

I agree with the above. They said it all. This is just beautiful, Thea.

Really lovely, Thea. I always feel so cheerful after looking at one of your paintings! The colors are gorgeous and the eye just moves around everywhere in the painting.

No mistaking a "Thea" ! Your compositions and style are real eye catchers - another lovely painting.

Lots of lovely interest and colour, and as always this is extremely well drawn. To maintain such good depictions of the objects and also achieve this lovely loose style is an indication of your skill with this medium.

Superb work Thea. I just love your style and looseness!!

A lovely fresh and lively painting Thea. I love your watercolours they are always so full of interest. Well done!

Wow - I am a bit overwhelmed as receiving such positive feedback and nice comments. Sincere thanks to you all for taking the time to look and leave your thoughts. I used to hate still life with a vengence but I am getting to really enjoy doing them.

Sorry - that should read .....'overwhelmed at receiving....' - I should learn to read comments back before posting them!!

What a great collection of stuff Thea. I propose (some) toast!

As usual Thea, a very fresh watercolour, just as they should be. I love the sense of design and the beautiful colours.

Strong, loose, vibrant and very you. Super.

I agree with all previous adulations Thea : ) and I really admire the way you have set the composition up , spread out yet pulled together by utensils and pattern bringing your eye back and around the painting , terrific.

Thank you all so much for adding such lovely comments. I feel very encouraged by them.

Just beautiful, always such good watercoloursfrom you :) Linda

Thank you, Linda, for putting such a nice comment - much appreciated.

I love this painting, Thea. You use such a variety of techniques to produce a beautiful overall effect. For example, I love the backruns on the bottle, all the lost and found edges and negative paintings. Exquisitely done!

Thank you Colleen, that is praise indeed. Backruns are my friends - I love it when they just happen. I hadn't realised still life was such fun to paint until I started doing them a few months ago. So much easier than landscapes!

Just browsing though paintings in your gallery. Every painting is full of beauty.

Thank you Thea, I think your work is beautiful such wonderful colours and fluidity of the medium, just as a fine watercolour should be.

This is lovely, Thea.
