'I think of her as a natural painter who could do no wrong. She always painted freely, aiming for unity of tone and using bold forms. In the early days her paintings were almost monochromatic. Later, when she began to use strong colours, it was like something falling from heaven – a wonderful balance of colour within tone.' Jim Alexander, Peggie Crombie, (exhibition catalogue), Jim Alexander Gallery, Melbourne 1983.
