Hi "Gillie"! I know that you're a "Minnesota Vikings" fan.......well, I just heard on the news that "Bret Farve" has come out of retirement again, and signed with the "Vikings"......he'll be their quarterback. I'm just wonderin' what you think about that. :)

FC....I have mixed emotions. What bothers me most, is the way they went about it. They played the public for several months....is he?, isn't he?, then announced definitely not.....and then the HOOPLA and the entourage and media blitz that now he is a MN Viking. The stores were inundated with #4 shirts immediately and that HAD to be totally planned. They bamboozled the fans and the fans are totally buying into it. Only proves that it is only a business and nothing else. I have a son that is totally into the Vikings....second year of season tickets. My daughter lives in AZ and she commented excuse the language...."wtf, I have to cheer for Favre now?" Oh well, we will all love it if he wins the SB and chastise the franchise if he doesn't.

I always love your sports draws, Gillie ... always packed with motion and emotion!

This guy looks so evil......I don't think I would want to watch that movie that you are referring to.....

druyamikyo (Oct 8, 2009)

I think you need some darker colours around the horse to distinguish it from the background, because now it just all blends into one.

This has a lot of contrast on my monitor at work. My laptop however has a superbrightwhatshamacallit sreen and it has less contrast. So Bob, me thinks its our screens :D.

I love the free painterly look it has.

All your horses have a lovely free style and of course artists choice..but I can see what he's saying...must be my screen as well. :)

Thanks so much for the feedback and the comments! I attempted to add a little more contrast, but I feel I did a poor job in adding to this... still all the nice comments are very meaningful to me!

I feel so silly now. Humility is a good thing. I like it.

Bette, this is beautiful! I see all of the effort you put into this, and it is stunning!
