This is fun, Diana, very effectively done.

Just brilliant Diana, such an unflattering angle of light unless you're a young and beautiful child!

Thank you Paul. Great to hear from you. Thanks for looking Lewis. I appreciate it That’s lovely Anne. I love a painting that makes me smile. Thanks for being here again with your lovely thoughts David. I’m so pleased you like it Denise. Thank you. I really appreciate your encouraging comment Heather. Love it. Thank you Tessa. It’s incredibly difficult to go so dark on a portrait in watercolour. In reality, it was more dramatic as the face was barely visible Thanks so much for having a look Sylvia Many thanks Elaine. The mouth area was the least difficult getting increasingly challenging as I went up Thanks Val. Glad you like it. Morning Carole. She was an evil doll , I think 😂 Thanks Petra. I would love a full wall of portraits of my grandchildren. Thanks so much Chris. I really appreciate your interest 😂Linda, she’d love that reaction Thanks again Jenny. It was fun but extremely difficult to get it dark enough. Thanks again Russell. Maybe I could really go horror with a version from her grandmother!!😂
