Sometimes the made up paintings turn out really well, and this one certainly has. It’s buzzing with plenty of action and colour and I can almost hear the music. It’s great, Barry.

Perfect crowded room scene Barry. Nice work

Thank you Ellen I wanted it to convey a busy restaurant and so your comments are very encouraging.
