How could any one  throw this out...just beggars belief.  Even if you don't know the person what a wonderful decorative item if correctly framed.

Here's my er, first play.  :P :P :P

Caz

Just realised I over rev'ed her.  Call me daft but I like the hand painting the way it is, adds authenticity and charm.  Also resized to a reasonable size.  ::)

Nice one Caz, I think I overdid the softening.

Didn't use layering, might be tempted to redo the whole colour thing.  ;D
