Richard Clarke – Excellent drawing, this little painting has got a great atmosphere of the space and a really convincing rendition of the copper surface.

Ana Avanzini – The reflection in this copper surface looks brilliant! Lovely dashes of vivid orange and the blue has a nice greenish hue that pushes it into the background.

Margo Armstrong – Love the delicate dark lines within the copper surface, the contrast helps to make the reflection appear more intense.

José B. Gama – You can really get lost in the glowing oranges from the surface, feels like it has been illuminated by candlelight!

Jerry Malec – Great drawing and balance of the subject and the dark surround really focuses the eye on the pot.

Rebecca Potter – Lovely details in surface of the pot

Joe Pellerin – Fantastic vivid hues in the oranges, with subtle reflected tones into the hearth top
