is that a corgi? :3
also i love the colour palette.

Cool ouo except for the smoke >3> Welcome back.

Love this style :) and i always like this sort of lighting, a dark pic with a warm light.

rofl no you weren't :) you were very helpful with all the comments you made ;)
I'm happy to be back! I'm really glad to see that oldies are still active!
and I'm glad that 2draw's community is kind of small. the internet is overwhelming :(

OOOOh, yummy, look so real! Great work Axel.yes, Axel is so good, he can teach any of us.those are absolutely delicious!

(My problem, I find, is that I am no longer the younger person who made all the very realistic or decorative work in my life. Apparently it no longer appeals to me, and also my hands can't do it anymore. Too much arthritis. But that just happens to some people with age, and definitely in my family.but also I'm not the same person, so my artwork isn't the same, and I can't do the same thing I used to do. Except for cartoons, is all., I found out that art isn't the only thing in life, and it doesn't do for me what it did, be such a great addiction.I did so much of it, I'm pretty much sapped out. I started in the first grade drawing in class, and I never quit.also, I don't feel like I have anything to prove to anybody except myself. Weird isn't it?I'm not sure whether it's a good thing or bad thing. Or neutral.) but I'm glad Axel is still going strong.

Oh these would be the perfect compliment followup to my chili breakfast! Slow cooked all night long...I'm a sucker for chocolate too. You were never an asshole to me Dan, and i appreciate it ^___^ Are u still dabbling in cake decorating?? Or maybe you've moved on to truffles? Beautiful work darlin'

glad she's ok

it was a close call, it took several months for her lungs to heal. If the cliff divers hadn't come by when they did she would not have it

Jiminy crickets, that was a close one. This is a beautiful painting of the ocean nevertheless. Quite powerful and yet delicate. (In Oregon and Washington states, when people are careless at the coast, it happens every once in a while. I've also heard of it happening in San Francisco off their beaches or docks. The ocean is immensely powerful, and too complex to swim in, as far as I'm concerned. Is really dangerous.)

Great job on the tones.

Who

yes, fantastic. And the tones are very very nice. I tend to like my pictures darker like this. (But I probably should get a new monitor, LED, because my old one doesn't seem to be able to pick up old dark tones.)so this is where all the oil painters have gone. Well that's fine, it's just as well, it looks just the same anyhow.

gorgeous; and if you do all manage to leave the us of a, the most powerful,richest, most independent state will be leaving. i predicted this would happen, but i thought it would be much later; guess not. lovely pic, dear.we all respect you and your state.

:)

wow, yes, you get the depresssed tortoise-feel.i love the sky, beach, critter-colors soft and moloncHoly.(melncoly?SAD)dark and mauvish-purple-gray-blu-gray. nice.

Melancholy.
When a man loses all reason, discouraged by his own strength. He falls again, void of matter, void of spirit, barely carries himself.

what a nice compliment dorothyblueeyes, thank you :) and thank you Elly and Dave too

I love the soft highlights. She does look like she's off in dreamland.

I thank you

yeah, good coloring, nice texture; even got her expression.and the flowing line of the body's posture works very well.i also like the background, how you made it.

Nicely done.. the right hip shadow and shape almost makes it look like she has a "unit:" though

This is quite refreshing to me...I really like the sketchiness left in the bkgrd and the touch of hot color in the lighting....fabulous!

I used chibi... i just put colors down and used smudge then i added details..no copying.. just winged it.. nope not chewbacca

Bigfoot gone ape wild....Great fur! Love chibi =)

he's usually very placid except when he needs his walkies! hehe Thanks Elly
