Morning Janet,

I like those :D . You certainly captured an old master look there.

I see from your banner that you like painting an eastern pic. Me too.

Nice work J :wink:

Thank you rohanaseneviratne, jeanniezelos and J for your kind comments! :)

jeanniezelos, I keep hearing about the fact that people are one the thoughest subject matters but I seem to find that it's one of the only subjects that inspire me to paint. :)

Chalky, I love eastern pics with that old world feel. :)

I think she's wondering what's occuring in the test match now that it's on bloody Sky and no body watches it any more.

Not bitter and :twisted: ...honnest!
