I Give You My Heart

I should think it was snapped up. Who wouldn't want this super painting on their wall! The depth of rich colour is wonderful and the close up view really works. Great stuff, Val.

A stunner Val - so like the way it dominates the picture

Apparently it can be quite a scrabble as people try and be the first to paintings they think are by well known artists who have participated. I couldn't manage to go this year so I don't know if my little attempt was left all alone on the wall or if some kind soul took pity and bought it.
