Nice pastel style Michael with a limited palette of colours.

Thanks John. I've a lot to learn. It got a bit muddy.

I love this, Michael. It has subtle movement, and great colours.

This is good Michael, horses are not an easy subject and you have captured their movement beautifully.

Smashing Michael

Coming along very nicely Michael...captured the sense of movement well.
