    I love seeing your paintings @derekjohn , it's great to see you're back. I tried painting but I'm really not very good at it ๐Ÿคจ๐Ÿ˜Š.

    Ozzy Osbourne (farewell gig last night) would like that one. Bark at the Moon (it's a track from the 80's).

    I really love it when people tell me that they like my painting, as I still don't think there anything to shout about , but painting takes me to the world I'm painting as this one I'm on a farm , feeding the chicken

    I love that it takes you to the world you're painting. I was going to start again, I was going to buy some pictures of some favourite places (buildings) I've been to but can't afford it so keep thinking maybe i should paint them myself instead. Well I mean draw them as I gave my paints away but lots of nice pencils.

    This is really lovely - SO realistic. Do you mind me asking how long this takes you? I painted my vets' building once, it took me c 4 months !! And that was working on it every day ๐Ÿ˜ƒ

    That's phenomenal @derekjohn! Good question @Santosha12, I'd be curious to know how long something like this takes? ๐Ÿคฉ

    Santosha12 have you tried diamond art ? . You can get them from the works, amazon and temu. Hobbycraft are expensive
