Just for a giggle - this is my brother's birthday card: he has just got over a worry about his son, daughter-in-law and grand-daughter; and he's heard that his daughter is getting married in June. So having settled both his children, he can lie back in his tree-nest, and twiddle his toes in contentment. Acrylic and coloured pencil, quarter Imperial or a bit smaller.
