I like it Michael, if you had a dog by your side I would have put more in the hat!

Thanks everyone . Glennis - great idea and there's room for a dog - might add one in

Love this, Michael! Definitely what I want to try, bystander are my bugbear!

Have you put the theory to the test Michael, and if yes, does it work? It's the one thing that really puts me off about painting outdoors, I try and go where I know no one will be around! Great idea!

Great cartoon Michael. How embarrassed would you be if someone actually put money in the cap!!!

Great cartoon Michael, I'm sure the onlookers will close their eyes and walk quickly past.

Grateful thanks as always for taking the time to comment. Karen - I think I would happily pick up the cap and treat myself - it would probably have to be a penny chew!!

Another good one Michael, must remember to try this next time I am outdoors painting in the countryside, it might keep the people away but not the MIDGES up here in Scotland,!!!!

Have started doing art based cartoons - in fact I am on a role at the moment! You are probably familiar with the old joke that, when painting en plein air, the way to stop people looking over your shoulder is to put a cap on the ground with money in it - - it struck me you could take it a step further! .........well it's a thought!!!
