Voted for this in the Most Beautiful Pastel contest...very pretty. Love the way that you used your colors. f/l

so BEAUTIFUL, it stopped me in my tracks and I just had to sit here admiring this wonderful image L/F

Wonderful painting and I love the soft texture.

So soft colors of this still life! fvl

Drawing, texture and colors are amazing. I also love this one, Frances.

I love the pastel colors!

Wow! Exceptional! Fabulous colors and shading! Kudos!

Congrats once again Frances!

The soft, textured look is exactly what appeals here. I would also expect a matte look but instead this one seems almost to shimmer with light and I can imagine it printed on high gloss, metallic, metal, acrylic as well as canvas or matte paper. Lovely colors. Congratulations on your 1st place win in the Kitchen Art - Food or Cutlery contest.

Thanks everyone
