Taidgh Lynch: And he opened his mouth ... and drew.

     Well needless to say, this one got some good feedback from the postman & our concierge, who over the pass year have somehow become art critics.  They tell me that Taidgh's use of rich colours on the envelope enhances his drawings to a high point.…
