I think, as usual for your work, that you've done an excellent job here. The shapes and colors are pretty much spot on and the shading is very nice as well. I am very impressed. Good job!

    No problem.

An impressive piece and particularly like the use of your light ,medium and dark tones throughout which gives this a nice 3D effect particularly around the base of the vase and creases in the cloth.The structure is good and well centred and the attention to detail in your blooms is very well done

    Thanks a million for your complementary review on this painting of the colourful Herb Posy that I won a prize in a local Flower Show. I painted this over 30 yes ago.
    I've just started to paint again as I can't download photos from my camera until my new computer is set up & that maybe weeks with the Covid 19 shut down. I've no more excuses not start painting again.

Who would have thought six months ago that we would have so much time on our hands today? A beautiful drawing that is well composed with a great color palette.

I am really enjoying seeing your watercolors, Susan. This is lovely and your rendering has excellent detail. The real life version provided you with a super subject to paint. Well done!

This is beautiful!! I don't think you have lost your touch! I especially like the cloth not being flat to the table cloth which gives it dimension. If only I could do something like this. Oh well! Not in my wheelhouse.

Cool,Susan!
That's a fine looking watercolor painting,my friend!
It's got a nice 'Cheerful' and engagingly 'Pleasant' kind of a tone to it that makes it a very enjoyable picture to look at!
'Good Show'! : )

    Sean,
    Thanks a million for your complementary review on the colourful Herb Posy that I painted many years ago. I'm attempting to take out my paint brushes again...as I can't post the photos from my camera at present...& Won't be able to do so until the present restrictions movement are lifted. I can't leave my house at all. My friend who will set up my Computer is also restricted but not as strictly as myself as he is younger... I hope you are keeping well and safe.

    We're not technically 'locked down' here but I'm staying in as much as I possibly can,Susan! ( Most of the photos I've been posting were taken several years ago and I'm about to go back to posting my drawings anyway! )
Comment from Shadow catcher


A beautiful Still life,Susan,the arrangement is nicely composed and the colors are so lovely together.I really like the detailing and depth you have given the towel: i feel that I could reach out and feel it's softness. Hope you get the chance to do more painting in the future!

It is such a surprise to see that you are doing traditional art as well Susan, and I am happy that you have lifted Your Paint brushes once again. It is such a lovely still life you have presented here, and I understand fully that this water color painting is a prize winner.

It is easy to see that this is done paying very good attention to details, and With accurate and smooth brush strokes. I also like a lot the color palette you have used.

The format and framing is working so well and the bouquet of Herbs has got a fine placement on the paper. A truly pretty and well done painting.

    I'm hoping to start painting again as I have been promising myself to do so for sometime.

    You are more than welcome Susan. Ever so oftene I think of starting painting again as well. I have done some water color as well, but mostly oil paing.
Comment from Zilyram


A very nice still life you have created with your watercolors Susan. I like the simplicity of the arrangement with complementary colors. Very well done - personally I cannot even draw a stick figure :) :)
