Many thanks to everyone for your fab and interesting comments. I loved making this.
At last my four offspring are at Uni or in work. Now is my chance to get on with some artwork. b2mem March 2017 challenge, is just what I need.
Just at the moment, I'm starting with photomanips, but gradually adding drawing over and around, to get the practice and work up the skill to draw in Photoshop.
Lovely to find lots of artists and writers here. "Mae g'ovannen!" to you all.
