Don’t think I’ve ever done anything ‘botanical’ so ok I’ll give it a go but I’m away til Friday. ‘Your train’ is pretty impressive Marjorie!

Way out of my comfort zone, Marjorie, but I'll give it a go. You train challenge is looking bold. A stiff challenge there, Martin. Will pop back in with your challenge the end of next week, hopefully.

Did you see your challenge Carol? A portrait? Could be of a sheep……

Hello Marjorie, a quick review of your profile page tells me we need to see some buildings from you. (you did ask :-) )

How about doing an illustration of the poem The Listeners by Walter de la Mare (one of my favourites).  Gives you plenty of scope!    Or a painting with the theme of Out of This World?     I’m happy to take on a challenge, but won’t have the time for a few weeks.  (Brilliant train, by the way, Marjorie.)

Yes, I saw and read, Marjorie. I've been on the case and just finished a very quick portrait, I thought you meant of me. I've done quite a few of sheep, but not human.

K Marjorie. Someone chewing on a Carolina reaper, hot pepper, not realising its one of the hottest in the world

Here's my challenge from, Marjorie. Bit dark for the eyes and the lips but if I poch goodness knows what it'll end up like. I'm quite pleased with this.
