SHEEPS SKULL ON A SUNDAY.

Comments

You can tell you had fun doing this Sylvia and the result is fantastic. Who would have thought an old skull would make such a vibrant painting! Glad you managed to post it for us all to see.

Great vibrancy in this and obviously fun to do - incidentally does it look any different on a Monday? - sorry - just me being flippant again,
