What a lovely handful it Is too Fiona,and a lovely pallet of colours. Hope you don't get hit by the next storm that is on it's way

Nice work Fiona. It's a lively piece for sure, which has worked well in mixed media. I particularly like the soft edges of the jar and some other seed outlines, so much nicer than a hard edge I always think.

David, thank you very much x Thanks john, I’m not so scared of colour these days...lol. Thank you Carol, I think we will be on the edge of the storm but still looking at 50 to 60 mph winds, and heavy rain. Thank you Alan....mixed media seems to be in vogue at the moment.
