Goodbye Mary Fedden, whose work I have so much enjoyed. I hope you are happy and reunited with all your cats and objects and beloved people in a magical place with zebras and teapots and vases of brightly coloured flowers. Thank you for all your beautiful paintings.

A few years ago we saw some of her paintings at Castlegate Gallery in Cockermouth.
They were soooo beautiful!

She had an incredible talent. So sad to think she's gone.
Wonderful talent. She leaves behind so much for us to continue to love.
I LOVED her stuff -so sad.
Very sad news, I love her work. A great artist.
I love her work and she worked right up till recently.

Oh. I didn't hear about this on Radio 4, how sad. I love and have loved her work for so long, loved the odd bits of perspective and shape. I shall miss the dear one.
Sue, thank you so much for this post. Until I read it, I had no acquaintance with Mary Fedden, and now that I've been clicking across to various sites, I am informed.
I hope that some day I will be able to see some of her paintings before my eyes. Meanwhile, I certainly admire her work, and her influence on her direct and indirect pupils.
My, what a long life she had, and what art she saw and made during those years.

A lovely tribute Sue, i enjoyed reading your previous posts about her work and I can see that she has inspired your work a little too?
I am sure her spirit will live on in her paintings and in the work of those who she inspired.
Very sad news, I love her work so much.
I loved her painting at the Summer Exhibition last week and was drawn back to it repeatedly. I didn't know she had died.
She was a beautiful woman and a wonderful artist. I love her life enhancing, joyous paintings.
A long life, well lived I think. Your words are lovely and so fitting.
Many thanks to you all for your comments especially those I haven't been able to reply to individually because your email addresses are blocked. It's always lovely to read your contributions though :-)
