Pleasant weekend,

Very nearly that time of year again and I could do with the assistance of the good folk down here - if you don't mind.
I'd quite like to see how these Sharpie paintings might be received at the Society - whether they're interesting enough for exhibition or are they too whimsical; anyway, as they have formed quite a substantial part of my creative output this year, I think I'd like to chance my arm with a couple . . . . so - out of these four, please would you give me your favourite two (just the numbers will suffice.
Many thanks in anticipation.

It was 2 and 3 for me too....but only just as 4 is jolly super too!
I'm sure they'd be accepted for the exhibition no bother as they capture the moment and the jizz superbly....unlike some pictures that make it through!!! :eek!:
Glad I'm not on the judging committee - I'd be putting them all through! :t: :-O

Yes, 4 for sure! After that I think I prefer 1 to 2 but I like them all. I also wholeheartedly agree with your reasoning in submitting a couple of them. That's always the philosophy I use it determining what to submit for shows, not that it necessarily works out. But still it seems completely right - show what you spent time and energy on. Hope your audience catches up!4 for sure! Don't forget submission date is now Sept

All are knockouts. Very hard to choose favorites, but for me I think its 1 and 4.

Hi Tim! Oh, I'Ve been here all along. Just not saying much. Difficult for me to do!!
For what it's worth, I like all of the "Sharpies" you have shown us. But, not as much as I like your "regular" watercolors.
Forgot to tell you I have really enjoyed poring over your book! It's a real inspiration. And thanks for the personal touch of your magic on the title page!
