I'm just hoping and praying that next doors builders take a full 4 day break. I've not been able to lift a paintbrush over the last 3-4 weeks with all the banging and hammering. Perhaps I'll try an April blossom.

Mine too, just don't forget to clean your teeth....  A fine example of the fact that a good painter will have a crack at painting ANYTHING, because everything has a shape and colour, and colour that defines shape, and it's just the same as one Monsieur Chardin said all those years ago: "it doesn't matter what you paint, it's how you paint it".  (Except  he said it in French...)

Nice one Norrette and a very angry Welsh Draig Stephen.   This little guy is a small carving from the end of a bench in the House of Commons. I was stopped mid draw but managed this

Fine dragon, Stephen - look, Syvia is providing its snarl!  I've always thought Sylv was a bit of a dra..... ahem; no, changing the subject... Snicker.  Yes, Norrette, watercolour is a tricky so-and-so; and Sylvia - ignore that remark about your snarl - please - and your dragon is a creature of character too, and would have been more so had you not been prevented from finishing it by a cold bureaucracy.   What damage could you possibly have done by being allowed to finish your sketch?  Jobsworths everywhere!
