**lelou has kindly agreed to go some rounds with me this month =D

here's the starter - nice and simple =]

**

nice starter Knevel :thumbsup:

lots to work with here - this ought to be good. :beer:

oooh! very nice!

pulls up lawn chair, lounges

**anybody seen lelou?

erm, just for the audiences pleasure, here's the Hoff (again) =]

**

:applause:

Sorry...I had Friday off and the weekend was chock full.

I won't be long!

it's OK, we had the Hoff to tide us over.

Hoff can sure turn that frown upside down. Pardons again for the delay, I had a hundred things kick me in the face.

Here 'tis. Overworked within an inch of it's life, but it's breathing...

Was Hoff meant to work his way in there?

nice, lots of stuff in there that I would love to see in a larger version

Wow, that's quite a departure! Impressive organic quality there, lots of interesting texture and colour to work with.

oooh la! very nice start lelou!

**here I am J.H. =D

nice volley, really gives me something to get my teeth into

**

**here's a quickie (that took a long time coming)

I hope lelou is still around - she hasn't answered any of my emails/PMs =/ **

yes, I hope she's around too

nice return knevel, very subtle with both the transition & texture :thumbsup:

**she has a virus and isn't feeling well =/

get well soon lelou

thx Walt

**

virus schmirus, get your petticoat off girl and get into it - we're waiting!! I always recommend a couple of good shots of Bundy in times like this .. what it doesn't fix it f@cks so you always come out a winner!

oh, and nice return Knevel

Love the weave texture on those loose watercolour-y areas, the silhouetting is a great element - very nice transition.

What a horrid two weeks :( I think it deserves another sad face :(

But hey knevel, I love the mood of the trees and the texture is great too.

Onward!

that was worth waiting for and is quite complimentary to Knevel's previous one.

**how lovely is that? =D

glad you are well and welcome back

you'll be happy to know the ZIP worked fine this time =] **

HOt stuff, lelou - very nicely played.

glad to see you are back lelou...

very nice piece

*lol, got layers =p *

oh WOW knevel... this one's sweeeeet

beautiful & sweeeet... well done sir :thumbsup: well done!
