Fish and chips

I have the pleasure of having a one night fundraising exhibition at the Helena May next week.
A couple of weeks ago I got to sketch food and painted it later, here is one of the dishes...
...I love my life!

Dim Sum No 1

Har Gao, prawn dumplings.
After sketching these for the Arthouse Sketchbook a few years ago, I always wanted to do some watercolour versions.
Finished this before last week's exhibition (with four other artists) and it sold before I got to post it.
A very nice feeling
I'm thinking of including this (or a range of dim sum) in the limited edition prints.....
what would you like to see as prints?
