    Great photos Norah, I saw a nice gouache sketch by James Gurney that's similar to your lovely watercolour on YouTube, worth a look maybe, don't use gouache!!! on yours I'm saying it only as a compliment..and for your info

    Thank you Kyrle, I will finish it first and look that up then - I am too easily influenced if I watch too much youtube and its hard to develop your own way of painting. I am using Golden open acrylics on it now and a few mistakes have been fixed with your pose, thank you for that. I was thinking of that painting of the girl at the counter by Manet, cant remember the name just now. I loved all the tea and coffee making stuff that was on the table in front so that might feature a bit more strongly. It was a great day. Im not sure if anyone wants to go out saturday next, I might go to Castletown
