That is pretty fantastic Christine! The gull is superb and I love the circling patterns. Well done!

Hi Christine, have to agree with Satu. The circling patterns really give it life. Very nicely done.

Yes - well composed and good choice of palette

Thank you Satu, Ian and Michael, I find the iPad great for experimenting with composition and colour.

This has worked so well! I'm jealous because I haven't got to grips with brushes and I've given up! I do use simpler apps occasionally.

Thank you Carole, Fiona and Marjorie for your lovely comments. Marjorie, the version of Brushes that I have is the original one as used by David Hockney and has now been updated to a much more complicated version which I can't get on with at all!

I think mine is the original too but it's all those layers too complicated for me!

Gorgeous work. Christine! I love that brilliant light behind the gull. It makes for such a dramatic backdrop!

This is so simple but really, really effective. The white dove of peace - rather apt given the few days we have just experienced. I love it, Christine. (Got another challenge I am going to have a got at - details in a couple of days.)
