This is such an appealing painting, the colors, shapes, composition , it all works together very well. I have visited it several times and it seem as if something [so tine I could not pinpoint it] is distracting me from seeing the lovely shape of the pitcher, especially the lovely curve of the spout. Today I got it. I tried a little experiment that I use for myself and for others if I am helping them with a painting. You might want to try it also. Look up at the painting and place the tip of your finger over the spot where the spout joins the very dark shadow on the pitcher. To me, the softer shadow on the pot allows the little spout to really come forward in the painting, so I dont see the shadow first. See what you think.  Any way, not a big deal. . Love your work. please keep posting. Anneta
