Lovely work, Julie, love the humour of your first post :) Fiona, your painting is gorgeous, certainly would make a beautiful card. Some carol's can move you to tears, Lewis, in more ways than one. Nice work.

You’ve captured that wonderful relationship between grandmother and child Sylvia. What a lovely painting of a strong woman in both ways! Great stuff.

I've taken two articles from the January issue, of the Leisure Painter for this winter scene. Painting Project by Colin Steed and Behind the Lines by Murry Ince. It was a nice experience having my dip pens and ink out after so long. Brush, dip pen and ink. Have a Happy and Peaceful festive season, everyone.  Ah, ha. A post success. Thank you, Dawn.

Sylvia Evans on 16/12/2019 11:37:40 Thanks, Sylvia. I think the red in the LP picture, is a Royal Mail van, thought I'd pop it in :)

Some beautiful efforts - well done folks!  Had intended to get involved but got a lurgie so am now behind with all the Christmas stuff and still a bit wabbit.   Enjoying your efforts though.
