I have not been painting for the last year as I have been ill, have just come through another major operation and this morning I received a lovely comment on a painting I did at the early part of last year. It is hard as all painters will know when you are very ill and in continuous pain to pick up that paintbrush again but thank you for all your comments and this morning I went into my art room got out my water coloured pencils and started sketching then started planning ,my next big picture which will be on here as soon as I get it finished. Thank you for this site and thank you for all the encouragement. Dorothy
