Dear Enzie,

Thank you for looking and commenting on my work, it is much appreciated.

I agree that it is too blue, I think that I got carried away! This is especially easy to do when you choose Prussian Blue as, no doubt, you will know.

I think that when you paint from a black and white photo, as I have here, and hence being free to choose any colours that you like, can give some very interesting results, some good, others not so good!

I have thought about toning the blue down on the walls as you suggested but I am now nervous about there being too much white instead of blue. I think that I will live with it a little and hope that inspiration will come to me, which often seem to happen when I leave a painting for a while.

Thank you again.

Barbara
