FC, your onion, courgette and capsicum looked so good I decided to use them for our tea. Hope you don't mind, but there's none left now. :D Image

Why was it a 'practice painting' SB? I wouldn't have thought you'd need to practice.

I call it practice as the painting consists of various items,gives me a chance to try and improve my techniques. I suppose its like anything that you want to improve at,practice and more practice.

I like to grow and photo roses I always have found them difficult to draw and paint,so had another go,whilst disappointed with the painting side am reasonably pleased with the initial drawing.
