Poppy

Poppy looks wonderful Stephen, you have painted her beautifully especially as it's your first attempt, so very well done. I've also got a cocker and the first time I painted him he looked terrible! As they say 'practice makes perfect'.

Lovely Stephen, especially as you haven't been painting for long.

Thank you Margaret and Carole. I can see lots of things to improve the next time I try something like this, but my partner is absolutely delighted with the painting and wants to get it framed and on the wall as soon as possible, so that's the most important thing :-)
