Jane,
About this, that you've just uploaded:

Forget sycophancy or polite murmurings, it is actually spot on, IMHO, the real thing. The balance you've got is almost unnerving (and certainly very annoying!)
If you're going to sell it, put the price up a lot. I bet it'll go.

You're kidding, Nige!?

You know, I am the WORST judge of my own work... this was a little idea I spotted last weekend after passing through the Rollrights on my Saturday jaunt between Stratford and Oxford. I tossed it off on Saturday and Sunday eve (as it were). I can't even remember what price I bunged it on my website for... pause to check it out.... 75 quid unframed. It's quite pretty, i s'pose!

Many of the pics that I think 'that's GREAT!' people just don't react to in the same way. I absolute ADORE this one: http://www.janetomlinson.com/images/fullcircle_fullmoon.jpg
but I've only sold one of the four. Its so weird cos i think its a corking piece.

There are so many of my works that end up on the 'its crap' pile that I have to rely on treaclechops and Traff to tell me: 'hey that's good!' So i've given up trying to assess them myself.

Anyway, what I'm trying to say is if you have enjoyed looking at it, then it has been a success and worth my time doing it. Thanks for the vote of conf, nige.

Jane - thats a lovely painting, very loose and natural style - quite evocative!

Mikki absolutely loved it when I showed her yesterday. Said it looks as if you can see right through it!

nigelswift - connessoir and fine art scout: I'm pleased to report that you were RIGHT in your assessment. The painting has just been reserved by a purchaser!
