Simple, so restrained, such a pleasure as a viewer to be trusted with filling in for ourselves.

I really like these minimalist drawings of your Michael, so effective and attractive. Beautifully mounted and framed.

Has a nice modern feel to it Michael, good presentation too.

Simple and great Michael

Lovely - Michael beautiful mounted minimalistic yet very effective.

Thanks everyone for your generous comments. I am now scratching my head to think of some more images along similiar lines - has anyone any ideas?

Perhaps an animal or a tumble down house, or would one of your cartoons look good framed like this?

A really classic series of images Michael, especially the way you have chosen to mount them. How about 'mother & child' ie. Madonna-ish, how about Roman or Greek clasical figures?

Really nice line drawing Michael. I have seen a similar print by Tracey Emin of the royal wedding kiss. I much prefer yours.

Thanks Stephen, Fiona and Denise - a few ideas which i will work on - they take a bit of thinking about and i find it quite amazing how just one mark either added, removed or placed differently can make such a difference to the finished drawing when you are working to this degree of minimalism so getting them right is not as quick as the finished drawing would suggest.

Super work Michael!

It's really amazing what you achieve with just a few well placed lines! Another super one, Michael!

OK so its not an original idea (but then nor is any subject you may think of) - I have seen many versions of the kiss but this is my take on it. Indian ink and brush on mountboard and mounted in the usual way.
