I like how pattern and colour depth give the impression of form.

Thank you so much, Alan. It's so rewarding when comments pop up on paintings posted a while ago and you realise people have been looking at your gallery! This was my very first posting - although I'd been subscribing to the Artist for some time I hadn't really been aware of POL until the Jean Haines competition.
