Your studies are lovely! Full of movement and you can see with each drawing you’re changing things and keeping others. It feels like you’re really honing in on what you like and enjoying.
I can really see where you’ve made choices in them and the last couple feel like a ‘final’ drawing, or the ending of your experiments if that makes sense? Like you’re happier with the outcome!
I really like the freedom in these studies Fiona. I think you've really captured the 'feel' of gorse, as when you see it, your eyes absorb the whole thing - the colour first, that punchy golden yellow, and the textures - as opposed to honing in on tiny details. And, as someone else here said, I can feel a progression in these studies, as you're honing in on what you want to capture too. I particularly like the second last and last paintings.
I'm looking forward to seeing what else you're drawn to as we move into this new season... ✨
Thank you so much! I’m really happy to hear that you like them - it’s very encouraging! I wasn’t sure about the second one but now I think it’s maybe my favourite, although it’s hard to choose.
Looking forward to doing more of this sort of thing!
I really love these wild gorse studies, they make me feel upbeat and happy as we bound into spring 😊
Keep up the good work Fiona, looking forward to seeing what inspires you next in the new season.

Thank you so much, Steph! That is great to hear :)
More of this sort of thing to come, I think!

Thank you so much Abby! That’s really good feedback and so helpful to get your perspective on them!

Yes that makes sense! And you’re exactly right there too!
