Gosh! I am so humbled and buoyed up with all the wonderful comments I've received on this painting ;)
I know it sounds selfish but, I was hoping and waiting to see if I was lucky enough to get a comment from Nolan (as it's an oil painting).  :blush:  I feel totally fulfilled now that he's seen it and given me such a wonderful comment.
It's time to move on to my next painting.
 :thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou: :thankyou:
for all your wonderful uplifting feedback and patience.  :hug: :flowers: :painting:

you're pretty lucky to get a comment out of me, seeing as I hardly ever visit the website and am the person with the least amount of posts on the forum  :whistle: >:D

I know I commented but I don't see it.

Anyway...wow Tony, what a great one you did here. I realize the patience you put into it believe me. Alot of heart!
Something you'll have for generations.   How did you get the egg so incredibly smooth??  I can see so many things in the painting that took so much steadyness and patience.

The moment you find yourself mostly satisfied with a painting and think you'll "just quickly" do this or that, that's the moment to stop completely. Take the painting off your easel and put it aside for at least 24 hours, then reassess whether it really needs that tweak.

Yeah, you did post a comment and I forgot to get back with a reply! It was on here: http://www.paintbasket.com/members/index.php/topic,1921.135.html

Pat, I painted the eggs wrong initially. They were too dark. I then spent some time determining the colour and then painted in on in one go (wet-in-wet style). I just blended by soft strokes of the brush. I'm not up on this 'glazing' technique yet. I've yet to see the video lesson replay on this subject to learn what it is, why you use it and how.
If I condensed the hours together on this 'Eggsecution' painting, I'd have got it done in a hours, not months!
I'm considering my next one and, I won't be taking so long on it this time! I've a few ideas and, I may try do a composite one from a combination of photos I've taken.
Thanks for your kind words on this painting Pat ;)
