very pretty, so nice, want this hanging on my wall. :)

Thank you :)

LOL It kinda kept giving me that impression too. Griffon dragon mix maybe? LOL

Yeah, repeating what was already said, but the skin tones are really great. And the bit of spine poking out under the skin is wonderful too.

yeah, that's really a great painting, but how did the model ever get out of the chiropractor's office again?

thanks , it doesn't look comfortable. But no, i've never done any life drawing apart from some reflected selfs. and drawing on live people ;)

Understandably! There's a lot going on here. You're brave to even try..I wouldn't have. :o)

thanks Miss DJ, there is still more work to do on it, I have been doing fabric painting on micro fiber and then making them into hand bags and selling them but ran out of supplies and am waiting for new supplies to arrive so am back to drawing on line

Hi, it's beautiful. I thought you,and others here, since we're all artists, would like this movie link to youtube's "El Greco", in English, a Spanish-Greek production. The famous El Greco,who painted in Spain; this is a very beautiful movie, really gorgeous. (NOt sure if this is appropriate, but thought you might enjoy it,and the cinematography is beautiful.)

Wow, you are painting fabric,and selling the bags you make?That's great. How the heck do you do it?You could give us all a lesson on how to apply art to making some money, I'd love to hear about it. Really selling art work is a great accomplishment. Did you talk about it, on the forum? Thanks, Pawillie, I think your work is great.

Like a real picture.. It's great!

?

how do you guys do this!?? :O Amazing

Well thank you ^^

well thanks, you are too kind.

this bulged my eyes out :) I love it.

being a successful artist is just as much about being a good salesman as being a good artist. you have to understand the works in the context of the times, how they are presented, and how they are received.

monetary worth is arbirtrary, anyway. why do people pay thousands of dollars for some t-shirt that a rock star wore? if I were to tell you I had a painting by pablo picasso in my museum, you'd be far more interested in visiting than if I said I had some schmuck you've never heard of. that's worth money.

Those metal textures.....lovely!!

that is wonderful, great. Sheesh.,looks like a science fiction magazine cover. I love that movie, saw it long time ago. I think "The shape of things to come."I think it has some famous old actors in, like Raymond Massey,ect. It was trying to show our world,civilization, had atomic war(I think)and became destroyed, primative. But some people saved a few airplanes,and decided to go forward with technology,and in the future, mankind finally went (almost) to the moon. It was trying to show,there was a good future,after atomic disaster,and man would go to the stars. I love that movie, great picture. YOU did good. Beautiful style, technique. "Showcase!"

Thanks for your comments! I do love shiny metal.
ChalkDust: the first one was already pretty close to what I wanted, so it was easy sailing from that point.
Dorothy: yes, that's the one!
