Dorothy, you've asked me several times if I'm a professional. thank you for the compliment, but I am not.

It is great, I even love your little 'imperfections', they keep it interesting enough to explore the better parts.. and she's also called you Axel a few times before :)

This is Great!

Pretty! Love those reflections. I'm not one to critique but, the leftmost green blue rock looks like it is morphing in the reflection .

Yes..very pretty. I'm partial to the tan colored stone. I'd probably keep it in my pocket and constantly rub it with my thumb obsessing over it's smootness.

thanks everyone and these stones are very smooth

I wish we had contests again.

A breath of fresh air!

yes, maybe we complain too much, or I did, and maybe that's why they don't have the contests. But they would be fun. Very nice little drawing of somebody wanting spring to come.

The Crab, wonderful...astrological sign? :)

the colors in here are fabulous, and the way he did them. Roytje,you're just getting better and better are you? Darn. Ha ha.

I hate the race card, and especially if someone is half and half, the black side of the card used as it's convenient. I wish we'd all throw the cards away...but, you know it won't happen.

miss DJ, I have even noticed black ladies who have beautiful skin, far more beautiful than me. I am very very white and even ruddy. And a black friend of mine was very tall, and she had the most beautiful skin, kind of light coffee and cream, and I kept thinking "how come someone like her might be more discriminated against, then me, and she's actually more beautiful!"she could replace Hallie Berry any day, although she's heavier.come to think of it, she looks a lot better than Glynith Paltrow.(maybe a lot of white people are also secretly jealous of some of these more beautiful, good-looking black people.you know, just looking very bleached out and all WHITE doesn't always look that great.)ha ha. But it's true! ;)

yep...beauty sure comes in all shades of the rainbow!

AAAGH!!! WOW! yer right, they could coleborate; have you guys?yummy! All the wonderful paint, Reds working with the black and blue, dark and light. Royje has a genius for light.. Have you been reading or looking at Gauguin?it's gorgeous.

I have noticed that painters and artists in different parts of the world, have different light in their environment, and it often makes a big difference in the lighting of their work.well, I guess that's obvious.(I'm going to go out on a big limb, right now, and say that some nations and parts of the world also have greater artists than others. Whoops, sorry that's a very racially delicate subject, but I still think that.)but it also depends on WHO is judging the art, anyway. I am biased. Haw haw.

I love this and the style in which you did it.

I love this, was a little saddened when the planter dissappeared but it is such beautiful work in the end it doesn't even matter that it's not there anymore.

I love your studies of lighting

Thank you

Nice! I always wanted a back scratcher like that one. Very nice drawing indeed
