I've done a lot of work since the last scan - almost finished the bottom margin :-)
I still have to
- highlight the green bits with forest (dark) green and yellow,
- paint the 'cone' of the flower on the rightmost side in shades of purple - I'm saving that up
- outline the whole lot in a very fine black line
Using the brush is true to the historical process and will also increase my skill at making fine lines, whilst driving me mad as I do accidental little wiggles and have to fix them up and re-touch the other colours.

Then I can start on the "T" with the swirls on the inside, that runs down the side of the poem.
