Caught sight of this 'unfinished' painting perched in the corner of my studio with a view to returning to it later. On second glance, I have decided that its finished!

lovely
Thanks for your feedback Rachel., much appreciated. I am liking your sliver of green sea on your latest painting . Very evocative – reminds me of Iona.
very evocative , beautiful
I like the sense of perspective in this that seems to draw you in. The reflections give interest in the foreground and set a tranquill atmosphere, whereas the sky has a shallow diagonal that provides a dynamic contrast. It feels fresh and alive to me – no need for more.
This is really useful feedback. Its fascinating to me to hear how this painting appears to be drawing intuitive responses , apparently on several different levels!
And it’s really beautiful
Thank you for your comments on this picture. Really appreciated.
Definitely agree this is finished
It almost like, at this moment in time, the work itself decides, No?
Yes I would agree Christopher, it has some lovely qualities. A great feeling of reflections from the warm ground showing through in the foreground. Sometimes we need to put paintings away for a bit before we can make a decision about them.
Its an education to see what effects the ground is having – almost in hidden ways that one may not be fully aware of! Thanks for sharing.
