That is a beautifully painted piece. Wish I had half the talent to do that. Well done. Malcolm.

Thank you form the replies. Appreciated. When we do displays we try and set things up with appropriate lifestyle staging. For example with the champagne flutes we'd have a champagne bottle, fruit in a fruit bowl, brooches on a scarf etc etc. Helps cut back on that awful 'what's it fpor' that so often people ask LOL.

Mo,

more of your work, the gentle blush of the sea bindweed is just right, can't wait to see your Ipanema.

[bodrighywood]

Mo,

 can't wait to see your Ipanema.

Sorry Bryan, Mo says she refuses to paint naked women on the beach. Might do an Alstroemeria though if that will do?

I wondered how you'd respond to that.

Ipanema is a stunningly Blue coloured bindweed, no idea if it gives its name to the beach though.

It is a variety of Alstroemeria, usually seen as a cut flower. Lovely bloom on it. The bindweed is Ipomoea or Morning Glory if I remember correctly LOL.

Damn, your right I spelt it wrong - it is a beach!

[bodrighywood]

There is also a variety or Alstroemeria  named ipanema. Looks like this
