  2. if 'art washes dust from the soul' then yours must be absolutely pristine ! lol !

    Another one of the 'yates' works that appears to be so calming in its simplicity ! ... but I now know better ... just trying to figure out just what to leave out & still having a canvas that is visually enthraling is an art in itself ! ...
    again Jan you seem to effortlessly accomplish what us ordinary folks cannot ! Kudos !

    ... p.s. ... I so want to be able to jump right in to this painting ! ... like into a big comfy bed ! lol !

  3. Thanks Wendilea and Robyn for your comments on my wee 'respite' painting! I am in progress on 2 large paintings and these wee canvases give me a welcome break as I find I have to get away from the large work so I can approach them again with a fresh objective eye..I also enjoy experiment with different approaches ie pallet and brushwork.
