Maybe now things will settle down enough for you to enjoy beading those pink blossoms on the tree of your Feb. vessel.

At least that's what I keep telling myself... :-) Thanks for your kind comments.<br /><br />Thanks, Lisa! Sometimes the little bumps and crevices get in the way but my felt is fairly thick, so I can get the needle in there pretty well without coming out the other side.<br /><br />Thank you Shirley Cook - Jumping Jack Glasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08026220287892386166noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22818638.post-24725868188617371972010-03-05T03:26:25.762-08:002010-03-05T03:26:25.762-08:00Do you read Robert Glenn's email newsletter?

One is the up front, active brain known to neurologists as "task positive." This is where you try to paint well, get the anatomy right, master colour, achieve a decent design as well as other practicalities of the moment.<br /><br />Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06700778413231259614noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22818638.post-86417208746161026702010-03-04T11:00:49.909-08:002010-03-04T11:00:49.909-08:00It was worth waiting for-very special.It was worth waiting for-very special.Sandyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07831911392950703592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22818638.post-3981973911345872362010-03-04T10:04:44.292-08:002010-03-04T10:04:44.292-08:00I like it, I want to touch it, it is an interestin...I like it, I want to touch it, it is an interesting piece.It draws me in like art is sapposed to! I think you are too critical of it! It seems to express your present state of mind.Something I can relate to with my own work latley!

I especially liked being able to follow your progress from the sketch stage onward. It's always helpful for me to see how other artists do things. Looking over at my own work tables, I certainly sympathize with the chaos you describe. :)Kalihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05656101965723180260noreply@blogger.com
