    I’ve not looked at your blog for ages – how busy you’ve been! This is really excellent – I always have a special liking for your seascapes & boulders but this totally different subject works really well too.

    Dear Sonya – how are you doing? It is great to see you here. Thanks for the feedback on this. My year has begun again and I can feel the constriction on my painting time and my energy but I am so keen to keep going.
    I have been to see your work too.
    Good luck with your exhibition.
