    Default "How could I not?"

    Hola!
    Is there a good way of saying in Spanish: "How could I not (like it)?" (Referring to an artwork.)

    - I'm really glad you liked my little try (..to make this painting for you).
    - How could I not?

    Or an alternative:

    - I'm really glad you liked my little try.
    - It's impossible not to.


    Thanks you very much in advance for any help!

    Hello Micu!!

    If it's colloquial Spanish, I would say "¿Cómo no me va a gustar?".

    Just a suggestion... Let's see what the rest has to say..

    Bye!!

    Yes, I'd like to use colloquial or at least informal Spanish (I'm sorry, I forgot to mention that).
    Would "¿Cómo no me va a gustar?" imply that I like the picture as well? Because I do.
    Perhaps I could add a "Claro" in the beginning..?

    I'll wait a little while before answering.

    Thank you so much for your help!! I really appreciate it!

    Si, estoy de acuerdo con vos... Diría: "Claro, ¿cómo no me va a gustar, si está hermoso?" For example...

    Glad to help!!!
