this is fantastic- i remember watching the programmea and thinking he had to pick this one.

just to let you know it's spelt Edmondson so if you change the spelling in the tags you will probably get more viewers as i only found this because i typoed

Hey, I saw that show years ago and recognized your painting from the thumbnail, well done on winning that I bet it was such a thrill :} Yours was most certainly my favourite :} Did the comedian take the artwork home with him?
