The Finished Painting | Tess W.'s Magnolia, part 4 of 4

Dear Tess

When I’d finished the new painting to my satisfaction, and packed it in the car to drive to you again, I took a photo.

This is the fourth email (of four) about a painting commission.

It reminds me how big that canvas really was:

It filled the entire back seat in the car.

I enjoyed driving it to you, and handing it over. I imagine that by now you may have had it framed, and put it up somewhere. I think you said it would go upstairs. Anyway, I left it with you on the big sofa near your kitchen.

As well as photographing the back of the photo, in the car, I took a picture of the front – the painting itself. Here it is (below), standing in my conservatory, closely resembling that second iPad composition but also very different, because paint on canvas is – after all – paint on canvas.

Thank you for the commission, Tess. I enjoyed painting this for you, and I’m thrilled that you were pleased with it.

Thank you for reading this mini-series.

If anyone else reading this would like to talk to me about a painting commission – well, please get in touch.
