Just thought this might intetrest a few people.

No it isn't a 1st April joke either.

Unfortunately I don't have a decent program to size down the picture properly, but hopefully it will give you some idea.

It is painted by drinking up 8 different colours at the same time.

Definitely the WOW effect that some people might be looking for,

I sampled them with a few people last week, and the reactions where good.

I haven't yet had any people re-order, but they definitely caused people to talk about them

Nice price, seen them auction this week for 80 euro cents, so to buy for 83p is very good IMO.
