yeah, that animation was entertaining.. it's wild how you go about painting your portraits, really shows how talented you are. I kept thinking it was over, but nope! it kept going :) great work here

You know what? My friend, Joe, that told me about this site, introduced me to it by showing me your stuff! What a small, little, tiny yet adorable world. Thank you.

If hell freezes over when you frown I wonder what happens when you smile.

it's ...those stairs......and it's coming......

Wieeerrrddd! My brain has just convulsed and died looking at this. I mean, wow. Especially for the 255 red/green/blue colors used.

When I first looked at it, I thought tha tit was stairs down to a hole that dropped into a peripherally lit room with wooden floors. But then that doesn't make sense, because of the fact that it looks like they're going the opposite way. That they don't line up properly. And oh my god, the brain has spluttered again.

Neat effect! :D

Piano keys is what I see. Hey girly.

Cindy said it the best. Just a treat to see.

this is cooler than some kind of thing that has five things and only four of them are cool and the other one is just regular.
girls are different than boys.

dang :( miss you.

big hug and smooch my poppa!!

((((pretty donna))

Your welcome Donna Jean. Man you must be overflowing, or on overload? x)

Just glad to see someone having a good life. Too much hell in the world these days. Seeing your happiness is a form of affirmation. ((((Donna))))

Nice colors!!! I really like the effect here!!

Meant to comment on this, it's one of your best portraits barr none. It could almost be an altered photo.

thank you tammy and sweetcell

Yeah, this definitely gives your Dad a run for his money in the cool department. Glad I don't have to judge this one. Call me weird, but I personally ENJOY the way you did the hairline, Jessica, it was unexpected, unpredictable, and.... artsy. :)

and YES, Marcello, little pink rosebud lips are "to die for"... any way you look at it. :)

whatever! *flips hair*

Boy wouldn't I love to see you do that.... and "outdo" ME at it, at that... HaHAHHH! *flips hair better* and rolls eyes :)

wow. this drawing is awesome. just like Ty said. :}

How do you delete something?

!!!

You are very pretty (jealous)

gorgeous...inside and out!

absolutely stunning job

simple and cute. i wonder how you got the clouds' effect. looks like the cards we used to always make, by tearing little sheets. (i'd love to know how to draw a torn paper)

Shults, that was pure accident. I was fiddling like I said and colored the clouds as normal, soft airbrush, mountains just again soft airbrush, low opacity erasure to get a softer look, then I began trying desaturate, luminosity, color and suddenly the mountains popped, the clouds looked more misty, and I was getting interesting shapes and forms below the mountains (used green) and began to fiddle. This was all trial, error and accident. Desaturate and luminosity were one of the tools that got that effect but I can't remember which. Alls I can say is "experiment."

Oh thank you Donna and Dave. Donna I thought you had my email addy. I'll memo it to you.

I really like the effect here! It's amazing how much it looks like layered paint!!
