Hi to everybody...here's my last post here for a while otherwise I'll be hogging this lovely site...I did some watercolours on commission a while back now for the middle four and have kept the first and last and they now sit on my wall in the living room...LOL...They're approx 24 by 20 and not copies of pics but used photos to get the likeness....click on all of them to see larger image.
This is Count Basie

This is Duke Ellington

And this is Claire Martin...unfortunately a bit washed out but not too bad a reproduction.

That's it for now...great big hugs to one and all...
