Not something you see every day! Fascinating different and well executed, the loose style works well.

You mean to say you weren’t out there painting in minus three. Lovely work again Marjorie! Hope you’re working on next years competition, deadline has been bought forward to February. I’ve done a couple but I’ll keep going…
