These little paintings are lovely Michael. The girl could "almost" be me!!

Thanks Adele. It is you. See the title. Not as lively as yours though Gudrun.

Ah Michael now you are dancing

Thanks Dennis. I'm not a very good dancer. At school we were expected to dance with the girls. I was petrified. It put me off it, although I saw how important it would be to a babe magnet. I became okay.

Could crit anatomy but won't, the shapes are the thing, plus the colours, a smashing piece.

Thanks Derek. My L plates are still attached.
