Your photos and descriptions are fab. I am going to give this a go some time and it would be perfect for making little pictures to go on greeting cards.<br />I paint in oils so was really interested in how you talked about the colours you see in the lemon. You would think it would be just a lemon colour, but when you take a close look, you see all those other colours in there. I do the same thing when I paint, the process of working out colour is fascintating to me.<br />Sorry for the waffle.<br />Anne xx**Anne**https://www.blogger.com/profile/05595796965034742923noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8660104507431384879.post-82060029321792270342012-01-27T13:37:09.067-08:002012-01-27T13:37:09.067-08:00I may just try my hand at that!
