It's very small... DOH!! It's a picture of a picture.

It's awright tho'. My preference is for brighter colours but it's still pretty cool.
Courageous too, asking this bunch for comment....

Oh in that case then - It looks like crap!! You call those brushstrokes?? You haven't even captured the essence of what you're on about!!!

I was too busy marvelling at your artistic abilities. Must have been dazed.

So that's why you're in Hokitika?
