I do love the vignette. Have the mag issue for this article. Always inspiring brushwork from Andy.

Ged, would love to see a couple of conquistadors in quilted jacket, morion and native sandals - one as a sword and buckler and the other carrying an arquebusier. Musician would be lovely too!
Best wishes,
Helen
