A provocative sketch Tessa. Hope you’re enjoying your combinations.

Nice! 😊

An effective sketch!

Thank you Carole. Interesting! Not intended to be provocative. Many thanks Art and Sarah, much appreciated.

I like that idea Martin! Makes sense. Thank you.🤔

Appealing sketch Tessa, she looks interested in something!

Thank you Carole. 😉
