I like the tall, elongated “figures” in this, Wayne. Deep, deep blues are wonderful too!

Thank you Donna. Getting a kick out of painting. Such a pleasurable past time when the excitement is there: like a kid in a candy store with a dime when I was a kid. Candy 3 for a penny. Expensive ones were 2 for a penny.

Love this Wayne. Beautiful blues and love the yellow and the composition.
Glad you're enjoying yourself that's what it's all about.. and yep.. re penny / dime sweets

Thanks Jade. Yea and cigarettes two for a nickel and if you had a nickel you could buy them no matter your age.

Ha! Yeh.. a lot of newsagents/ stores here would sell individual ones to school kids too.

It's about 20 years ago now but I also worked in a psychiatric hospital where they still sold individual cigarettes for 10p i think. I was trying to give up smoking at the time but sometimes I crumbled and would go and buy one!
