Do not be deceived: God cannot be mocked. A man reaps what he sows. The one who sows to please his sinful nature, from that nature will reap destruction; the one who sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life. Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.Therefore as we have opportunity, let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers.

I made this because after telling my stepmother about some recent trouble I'm having... she felt I needed more religion... which was true. She gave me an article including these words.. and gave me her bible also, although I have my own.
There are certain things I cannot forgive myself for that have made me shy away from religion.....but that is when I need to find the strength to let God into my life to teach me.
I know if I make enough changes.. and I have alot of changes to make now...that eventually I will see the end results I've been waiting for. I mainly just want to draw here and enjoy the site... I do share too much sometimes or too much is shared about me..ahem.. and sometimes I can be a real beast... but I'm really just a chill person with basically nothing else to do sometimes than to... oh I dunno.... screw up. And I'm sorry for when I do.

Those are nice words Lori....I think most people could use a little more religion in their lives....including me. I have two bibles.....one was my "late" husband's, and one was given to me from my aunt. I keep wanting to sit down and read thru the bible, but whenever I try doing that, it sometimes can be very difficult to understand. I used to attend church on Sundays, but I haven't been able to do that anymore, and I miss it. I have done a lot of screwed up things in my life too, which I am sorry for. I do keep God in my heart though, and I do say prayers. I too, sometimes share too much about myself on this website, and I know that some people here don't like me.....but I'm really not such a bad person.....I just mainly enjoy coming here to see everyone's artwork, and I enjoy drawing pics. Those words...."do unto others...etc"....they are good words, and I'm curious to know what you would do if someone did something to you that was "beyond horrific"....would you want to "do unto them" what they have done unto you"....or would you just "turn the other cheek"...so to speak, and "do nothing"....I don't know if you will reply or not.....but I'm very curious to know what you would do......

I don't believe that two wrongs make a right

I don't believe that two wrongs make a right either.....but sometimes there are exceptions to every rule......

I dont mind the dodge and burn in this pic, i think she used them well without over doing it.

elly (Feb 26, 2010)

I tend to use dodge and burn in about every draw I do somewhere or another...can we say obsession?? lol! I do overuse them and I'm trying to tone it down a bit...I'm only in my 2nd step of the 12 step program for dodge and burn addicts =) LOL! Thx for the comments =)

Zero_Lemons (Feb 26, 2010)

I just want to hold it in my hands, it's so cute! I really love the details of the feathers. I think your use of dodge and burn is effective for this as a whole :)

Reminds me of a road near home 'Apple seed lane' it is lined with loads of crab apple trees that flower at the same time, the smell is so scrumptious just like this drawing.

elly (Feb 25, 2010)

Thank you, LORI!! And Thank you, Tumblin'up =) I have a flowering crab apple tree in my back yard that'll be in full bloom come spring! Can't wait for that delicious smell!!! (don't look forward to the bee's tho...)

enjoydotcom (Feb 26, 2010)

Oh yes, so presumptuous ;). Great tips.

firecracker (Feb 26, 2010)

This is so cool....I really like it....I liked the tutorial also.....:)

spyra (Feb 26, 2010)

Great tips indeed. Thanks! :D

mursku (Feb 27, 2010)

thanks guys :D ..but the second tutorial it will be better than this, first i just gotta figure out if the techniques will work in chibi painter and is there any workarounds.. oh yeah, and i gotta plan it out beforehand. in this piece i was just winging it ;)

blew a whistle lately,no one did anything,passed the buck,so a dangerous bus is on the road,according to my source,and no one is doing anything,cause retarded people are "not important."that's govt. for you,it just does not work much.Oh,and Oregon now has a sales tax,and did not even know it voted it in.Fraud.wow.

"lolz".....you should draw an "oompa loompa" "BMW".....that would be cool......they are so cute...haha!! :P

Purplemartin (Feb 26, 2010)

Glad you blew the whistle, hope there is some change! It is all about money. Around here they keep catching embezzlers, those committing fraud, and they are all with social service agencies. Scary stuff, and the clients sink through the cracks, while they rip off the government and use the money for other things instead of serving the clients. A new sales tax in this economy? Is your state INSANE?
