Thanks. It took a while, over a month but I finally finished it.
Jim Phillips
Very well done Martin. Certainly a work to be proud of.
Tania Rose
beautiful work, Martin. Do you have any exhibitions coming up?
Martin Kirkwood replied
Exhibition? No, my works are just lying around on odd canvasses and scrap bits of paper at the moment. I will get them mounted, framed and ready to exhibit one day.

Wow Martin, this is fabulous… so moody and the tones are lovely..
Martin Kirkwood replied
Thanks Linda although every time I look at the original I get an urge to just tweak it slightly and make a few small changes. I’m trying to resist the urge. :)
