firecracker (Jan 13, 2010)

When I was a kid.....I used to love to climb trees.....but I think I would be afraid to try climbing this tree.....I'd be afraid some of those gnarly looking roots would come after me....."lol"!! I really like this pic.....I keep comin' back to take another look at it...:)

its an ambitious thing to draw

lynnandcharlie (Jan 10, 2010)

looks like a good start

elly (Jan 10, 2010)

I think it looks like a great cloudy evening sky, especially if the texture wasn't there....nice colors!

dorothyblueeyes (Jan 12, 2010)

they do look like huge clowds in the sky;but they're in the universe,so they;'TOTALLY HUGE,HUGE!!They must be what heaven is made,of,cause they're the rough pieces of what everything is made of,just painted all over the universe.That does make them very hard to paint.Like one of the Dutch masters,or Renissance guys trying to paint a piece of the sky.I just get overawed.sigh.Probalby,it takes years to do paintings of them,I bet.(my therapists; ambition is to paint them.who's the crazy one,ha ha.)

Suntan (Jan 10, 2010)

elly (Jan 10, 2010)

I like it, too. Seems nice and loose. Interesting how the front page tends to take on similar color palettes.

backmagicwoman (Jan 10, 2010)

I thought watercolor too when I saw this..good job on it lori...

elly (Jan 10, 2010)

elly (Jan 7, 2010)

It's the kind of painting you want to reach out and touch...the color reminds me of green sherbert..mmmmm yummy with 7up or sprite =) Very nice Axil =)

Suntan (Jan 8, 2010)

he's ignoring the dancer, contempklating yogurt

firecracker (Jan 7, 2010)

Nope flubadub.....sorry to say I haven't.....but it looks like it might be fun to try it. You can buy those poles and put them up in your house, and you can have a lot of fun exercising with it. I used to work out quite a bit with weights and barbells, etc......but I never had one of those poles. It's supposed to be a good aerobic type exercise using those poles. Anyways.....you didn't answer my question flubadub.....is that the kind of bars that you like to "hang out" in?? "LOL"!! I don't hang out in bars, cause I don't drink.....:P

elly (Jan 8, 2010)

I like the pinks you used in this, tscott =)
