The shark is magnificant and the water is so realistic it makes me feel like I am scuba diving right next to this fierce creature. Really nicely done. I have always admired artists that can draw such realistic water.

Blue Ballerina

Arggggg, that blue shadow appeared AFTER I hit submit. That thing really bugs me. Anyone have a suggestion on why my drawings do that. I will have to go back and try to erase it or color over it. arrrrggggg.

"the only time I see that happen is when I've laid down a backgound with the gradient tool...I dont know why it happens but it does.. then I usually will just put everything else on a new layer

Looks very nice QT. I have noticed that if you use the gradient at the beginning of your picture, it messes later on. Use the gradient at the end of your picture and see if this works for you. Dave's comments are the same as what I have experienced as well.

He's saying "Do you really want to cut into me now? Aren't you tired of pineapple? I know I am." You and your quirky sense of humour.

I loved the stories of these two rag dolls... will you draw Andy as well? This is so lovely JP! It could very well be a gift for someone's child! Whimsical and wonderful!

very nice Laura, this has just the right fade to the background so that your bird stands out. So glad you are getting the hang of the layers and how to use them, I know how you feel once you get used to them, you never want to go back! really nice work! three cheers from me!

QTgillie (Mar 28, 2008)
