Super charcoal painting Fiona. Been watching your liquid charcoal experiments with interest. I love what you have done with them. I've just had some posted to me. See what kind of mess I make with them.

Spot on Fiona, you've perfectly captured that beady eye!

Thanks very much for your comments David, John, Denise, Andrew, Paul, Heather. I’m sure you do Alan, that’s a tick from me! That’s great George! You will get much more out of them than myself I’m sure, can’t wait to see what you do with them. Thanks.
