And a big thank you for all your comments during the past year. This was yesterday's 60 minute snow scene painted as a request from my sister showing the church at Colwich where she was married many years ago. I have the frame ready so with a bit of luck it will be dry enough to take over to her on Friday. Oil on MDF, 20 x 20in.
