My Mums Bluetit

This is the latest watercolour by my mum. I just wish her talents
had been passed on to me.

Re: My Mums Bluetit

thankyou all for taking the time to post your kind comments.
they're very much apprietiated by my mum and myself.
In answer to your question Ding, she paints for a hobby
and the pleasure it gives her. The only people who see them are friends,
family and WAB community, which makes all your kind words
all the more apprietiated.


Ian

Re: My Mums Bluetit

In that case, it's a privilege to be able to see her work, Ian. I've tried watercolours and realised very quickly I had no talent at all. I wish I could have produced anything half as good.
