Like it, great use of turquoise!

When I was using it I was thinking, what are you doing...I reckon a linocut could suit this image

Like the way you have done this Ashley.

Thank you Stephen

Very slick painting and love the turquoise!

Thank you Guy, an experiment that I quite like (for a change 😁)

Delightful use of turquoise and lovely ancient building with figures passing by!

Thank you Angela

Ahh thanks Robert, really appreciate your kind comments and happy to demo the foreground, just give Admin a nudge 😁

Thank you Spencer

Love this spontaneous painting full of energy.

Thank you Carole, it was heading for the bin so I thought lets try a few things
