I enjoyed looking at this picture.   It is so inviting to sit and dream of what lies within.   A superb piece of work.   Well done.

marvellously textured, you can almost feel the warm breeze. keith marsh

Behind the veil!  I love the textures and the depth, the light and the welcome breeze.

   the bright sunlight and the hint of breeze reminds me of the Moroccan coast - as does the composition. It conjures up the feel of the country, looking outward yet discrete.

Love the tranquility of this scene - and the mystery of being in the room and gazing out through a gap in the gauze curtain to a sunlit courtyard. A moment captured like a dream. Barbara Exeter

A beautiful, etheral feel to this piece. The shadows on the transluscent curtain are particularly masterfully painted and lead the viewer to imagine what lies beyond ! Alan Ogden, Weston Colville. Cambs (11.11.09)
