Monochrome Theme

Our Monochrome theme finished this evening with (up to now) six entries. A piece of work of any subject and in any medium but only using shades of one colour.  These optional themes are an opportunity to develop a piece of your own design in a medium of your choice depicting the chosen subject in any way you feel. 

More will appear here as they are completed.
