I like this, but I think I would like it better if Abe was darker so he seemed to float in front of the flag instead of in it? Mary Todd Lincoln wasted coffee???

Abraham Lincoln actually led a very interesting life. His wisdom and temperance came later. He was really a dark horse candidate. His motives, I believe, were pure, but many of them were probably not for the reasons that people idealize him. I think that if you were to research a president, he would be one of the most interesting ones for you to look up. Also, George Washington rules.

Is it just me or does it look like a hand reaching in through the window and grabbing his head? lol I like Dead's idea.. and maybe a mouse gnawing on a bread crust just under the edge of the bed.

davincipoppalag (Apr 20, 2004)

I think a pale arm laying across the floor from under the bed.... like he's wondering what to do with the body..

Portrait of Lori (A Request)

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Apr 12, 2004)

I have no idea why she asked me to do this, with all of the wonderful "portrait" artists here like Gigandas, Icats, well, pretty much everybody can do ppl better than me. I'll do my best.

Bubbles...oo0 OO0Oo0Oo

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Apr 5, 2004)

This was inspired by children, and spring. I still love to blow bubbles. I used to think I had to only do it with my children, and then until my nieces came over, but now sometimes I blow bubbles just because I'm happy and I feel like it. I don't care if I look silly. (My golden retriever likes to chase them, anyway)

Good Dang DBA! Where do you get all that inspiration from? All your pieces are wonderful and I especially like this one alot. BUBBLES!!! *pops 'em* :D

Aubrey (Apr 13, 2004)

I agree about the depth, it makes it look all the more realistic and it's very hard to get a grasp on. You did it just fine :-D I love the bubbles too. My senior class back in high school was a bit off from the rest of the school. We all liked the stickers the english teacher put on the tests.. all liked ourselves just the way we were without being fake (in my opinion made us even better)... and a whole bunch of us liked BUBBLES lol. They actually made a rule we couldn't bring them into school anymore.. before that they never had a problem with people even bringing them TO school lol. Whoever came up with the Edible bubbles.. great idea.. twice the fun with twice the calories! *sigh* those were the days.

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Apr 13, 2004)

What a neat story, Aubrey! :) I always liked paper airplanes, and we could never do that... I substituted on and off for a few years when my kids were younger, and when I taught the little kids, like 3rd grade, I taught them to make these really cool paper airplanes and we flew them in class, and then took them out to the playground and flew them. (lol)

davincipoppalag (Apr 13, 2004)

Hmmm does it count that when we were in high school we injected vodka into oranges and ate them in class? lol

A Place to be

Pandora (Apr 12, 2004)

Summer is coming and it's going to be soooooooo hot here in the desert. We have a place here that is 35 miles north of Las Vegas that is always 20 to 25 degrees cooler. It's called Mt.Charleston, looks a little like this.

I love the colors!!! I'd like to walk right into your painting and dip my feet in the ocean.

emmamommalag (edited May 4, 2004)

I just looked at all the versions.. The final version is very nice, but I think #2 is the best. The darker foreground allows your eye to be drawn to the water. It's a calmer and more inviting scene.

Wow , nicely done. Wanted to get one of these for my aquarium but maybe I should rethink looks like a poison frog.

DMV (Apr 13, 2004)

this is great thug, funny skull .awesome shadow under the frog, hey i think if you adjusted the opacity and highlighted the top of his head all the way down his back , it would give it that wet look to it. another awesome job!

Okay, I feel better about the whole thing now. lol (That reminds me of the time I ripped up all the carpet out of the house because there are these beautiful wood floors... my husband came home from work and I had dragged all the furniture outside and it was on the patio and in the yard, along with huge rolls of carpet.... lol)
