Comment from Dick Lee Shia
Another meticulously colored Custer with colorful strokes melting harmoniously.
Subtle illumination.
Sharply focused.
Fine features & smooth textures.

Nice plain backdrop!

Thanks for sharing...

Comment from Linda Prebyl
Liking the coaster idea, how do they hold up, or would you coat them with something? I might try it in my spare time, lol. Great colors.

Thank you, Linda, for your nice review. I've only just started using the wooden coasters so don't know the long-term life of them but will have to varnish them after waiting two or three weeks from painting them. Hopefully with the varnish that should stop the paint from chipping. Suzanne

Comment from ArtistCarl
Well this is just to beautiful to use as a coaster. I think your technique to make these color no shape paintings is just superb. This one kind of looks like a planet with a hole blowing the insides out onto the planet surface. Additionally, your sense of color combinations is beyond measure. Reasons for my six star vote.

nice shape and nice colors, but you should have left less negative area around it, like this it is a bit lost

nice technique and creativity

Thank you Galia. The art is the actual pebble - the surrounding is the paper I place the pebble or coaster on to photograph as I can't just photograph a round shape, not part of the design. Suzanne

Comment from Malmax
Suzanne, these coasters are gorgeous. I would love a set!
The abstract design and colors are just beautiful.
They would work in any decor.The pattern created in this one is so so pretty.
Beautiful work!

Your welcome

Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan
This is so beautiful and elegant and sure to be the centre piece of a drawing room conversation! The colours blend with each other very well and the design is well chosen to be in sync with the shape of the coaster. Thanks for sharing!

Comment from SandraInSpain
Love the colour combinations, and the flowing movements. I see all sorts of magic in here. Minor point - maybe there is too much purple in the bottom half. It seems to take over the fpcus. Great work.

Cyber six for this one! Suzanne, this is just beautiful! I love the colors in this and the way they blend and interact, creating shapes and Paterns I see a frog , a bird and an upside down tree, but mostly this is just beautiful to view! Very well created using your special technique !

Thank you so much, Pat, for your lovely review. After using the beach pebbles I thought my granddaughter and I could try these wooden coasters for a change so I'm really pleased you like this. Suzanne

reply by alaskapat on 18-Aug-2018

The wooden coasters is a great idea! They would make excellent gifts, or be very impressive and special to use for drinks when you have company!

reply by the author on 18-Aug-2018

Yes, I'm planning to give some to my friends - I usually make chocolates to give them so will probably do both but will have to varnish the coasters first. Suzanne

reply by alaskapat on 18-Aug-2018

Your friends will love them!
