Thankyou EG , however as to your enquiry , " going soft " is something we have to get used to in our latter years , its nothing to worry about its all part of getting old mate .

No tbh mate I,m trying a few new ideas I have and trying to get away from having a lot of my paintings looking the same same , I like to try to work quicker now , pushing paint around as I go , shoving some different colours in alongside each other , standing back having a look then shoving some more on .

Just enjoying my painting everyday , its a great hobby , had a guy come round this week tuesday night , bought 2 watercolours and is gonna buy 2 more I have on my living room wall when he has the money , so its a hobby thats paying for itself now which is very nice indeed !
