A couple of cards for the next year
Had to move them from Ebay as they are introducing another terrible rule. I definitely know now Ebay is THE MOST UNPLEASANT AND UNFRIENDLY SITE ON WEB. Pity there is no real alternative.
Done a black tulip and dandelions in the garden painting, continuing working on "17 faces" acrylic and ink painting.
