From my end, I think the mums and the "solidity" of those cherries help to "ground" everything if you will and simplify things-clarify them I guess. The "exactness" of the vase pattern helps too I think. Lots of quote marks! <br /><br />Hope your week is off to a good start.<br />LibbyLibby Fifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13532162740012986996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-46641390013717822452017-06-20T05:41:27.748-06:002017-06-20T05:41:27.748-06:00so colourful1 :D really good job with the lighting...so colourful1 :D really good job with the lighting in this :)Jennifer Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06528908250338974537noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-36593895291711355662017-06-19T22:32:45.825-06:002017-06-19T22:32:45.825-06:00Thanks Hilda and I really do think the painting yo...Thanks Hilda and I really do think the painting you did of the house is a real knock-out!juliefordoliver.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07186754679744000743noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4203287968430038256.post-11533208707142868132017-06-19T22:24:54.610-06:002017-06-19T22:24:54.610-06:00I love the way you can break down color harmonies,...I love the way you can break down color harmonies, Carol.

I often marvel at your ability to create depth of field and three-dimensional forms in the midst of a complex composition. Your paintings are so rich and textured, but they never lack delineation. This is another example of your skill. It's lovely.
