I've just posted a still life on the gallery - "A Painting of a Painting". I started it with great enthusiasm and now I'm sick of it. Any good suggestions? I'm going on to something else for a while, a quickie, to wind down.

Tried again, still can't find it - how can I rip your work to pieces if I can't see it? You know I want to - (no I don't; I'm just being very silly; probably the gin and tonic and I'm suitably ashamed).

I often get bored with a painting I am working on, I've got three on the go at present and am rapidly losing interest in all of them. Marjorie, I did miss your posting yesterday, but I will look later as I have to go out visiting now. You can expect my usual honest crit...
