Another superb piece Jenny

It's odd, Jenny...I often find simple subjects hard work. But you've done a super job on these, and don't they look well together. (Your idea of the same 'picture' completed in different ways seems to be the intended challenge, so I think I'll be bailing out).

They make a very good set Jenny and I like the different backgrounds.

Just read about the latest challenge, Excellent work Jenny I can see why it's your favourite mug.

Many thanks Dennis, Lewis, Tessa and Val for your kind comments. It was an interesting exercise - I hadn't used the Inktense pencils before and will definitely try them again - but it reminded me why I just can't get on with pastels!

What a great idea Jenny and all of them very well painted.

This is an interesting response to the challenge - it works well - can almost see it as a poster for the kitchen!! Well done !

There lovely Jenny, time to put the kettle on...🙂

Many thanks, Carole, Rachel and Lesley, comments appreciated.

Love this Jenny, another different entry for the challenge, 👍😀

Thanks very much, Linda!

Painstaking work - much admiration!

Very, very good Jenny.

Many thanks, Heather and Richard!
