Really nice to see my pic in with the finalists - it is only my second go at any 'challenge'. Really hard to pick a winner as Richter's work was so varied. I'll got for No. 2 as I can't look at it without thinking of Richter's huge abstracts where he drags an equally huge squeegee across the surface to move paint around.

@wenbow @pistache you are joint winners of this challenge, you might like to collaborate on setting up the next one as Mike and I did for this or one may concede to the other, we would like to avoid a vote-off!!
