    Brilliant piece Lynda, love those colours in the foreground

  • Lynda Robinson replied

    hanks Josh – Good to hear from you and I hope you are having a great start to the year. In answer to an earlier question – yes, I have seen a few of Henry Moore’s scuptures, and that recent work you posted is extremely ‘Mooreish’!

    I guess you work with light as much as pastels Lynda.

    Hello Lynda, Great pastel. Alot of “snap and crackle” in the color interpretation of the water. It’s almost like you’ve woven and free form tapestry with your colors.

    Thanks heaps Baird.

  • Cee Neuner
