My perception of this is not wintry at all..it seems to me like dead white tree trunks that are caught in the blinding white light of the desert sun....

I love it! For me, it says 'beach'.....hmmmm.....

The first thing that came to my mind when I saw this was Watermark by Enya.

Great drawing.
Suntan (Dec 29, 2010)
Thanks! :)
I don't know how you guys see beach or desert? Why does the delete go away after a day?

I did this a while ago. I was experimenting with the texture tools to try and mimic watercolour with a textured paper effect. It likely doesn't belong on the advanced board, but I hope it gives some of you some ideas.

It's beautiful! And it does look like watercolor.
Suntan (May 27, 2010)
hmmm..I missed this! wow, you really did do a great job recreating watercolor. It's lovely, like a cove of a larger lake. Quite familiar looking! :)
jekyll (May 27, 2010)
Thank you, all. I've never really tried using watercolour to paint with and to be honest, it never really appealed to me. Lately, however, Ive gained an interest in it and have been studying various techniques on the web. I hope to give it a try in the near future. I made this scene up but there are many places like this in the area where I live. I suppose it's time I start taking advantage of it. It'd be a good excuse to just sit by a lake, anyway.
Suntan (Jun 24, 2010)
Have you been taking advantage of it yet? :)

eugene,Oregon,and Portland,OR;my hometown,and the big little city;hippies,drugs,riots,gangs,depression,murders,poverty,the Mayor of Portland) worst corrupt state govt.,and "politically correct"crooked politicians this side of Georgia and the Deep South. we kill off all the wild animals,put up freeways,we have a very "Liberal politcally "govt., imported from CA,and New York City. (I'm the only native I know,who's not dirt poor.)well,we are very "politcally correct,"and gay,and everything else.Yuck.

MORE TAXES,and less business here!Oregon is a Liberal,Democractic,"Green""progressive",that is going bankrupt.

it's like DETROIT WITH RAIN.

I have relatives in WA state,but it's very expensive there,and the taxes are even higher.I guess I could not afford it.I still love my place,and Oregon, nature,it's just the people who are rotten.(yes, every place is bad off now, not just this.)

'and gays get married... it's NOT ok!'

Seriously, Lori?
enjoydotcom (Jun 27, 2010)
Ahhh, am I one happy camper that I live in the Netherlands, where gays can get married, you don't get nailed to the wall for the occasional pot smoking (not that I do that), where women are boss of their own bellies, and I am free to believe whatever I want.
Flubbles (Jun 27, 2010)
When I was about 16 me and my friend baz got caught by the police smoking a huge reefer, you dont get in trouble for smoking it but they normally confiscate it all the same. Anyway later that day me and my friend spotted their police car parked up at lovers lane and they were smoking our weed.

IdaLee (May 22, 2010)
Yes, very pretty. I like the way the flowers stand out against the darkness of the water. And also how the more you look at this, the more you see.

was 55 when, astride her horse, she watched the British Navy defeat the Spanish Armada. Cate Blanchett was in her 30's when she did the movie. This is really frustrating because every couple of minutes the drawing tools just stop working for about 10 seconds. I don't know if it's my computer or what but it sure makes drawing a pain in the butt. The real QE1 was swarthy with reddish hair and brown eyes, a hooked nose and thin lips.
Here's a link to the ref photo.
