This is so beautiful QT! You really shine here! I am so glad to see the lovely work you are producing! I really love this pic! The slippers are so lovely! The entire peice is nostalgic, femine and so soft!

I agree, Amazing, Beautiful and such a unique picture with the piano and the music sheet. I would love to have this framed. I miss your ballerina draws as well. I loved the entire collection.

this looks like it wasn't easy ... so well done too

lovely colours

Wonderful landscape...Gel_O! I spent 16 years on that side of town, lived so close to the mountain. There is a huge civil war history there! I remember when there were horses all around that area and little by little the land was sold and devloped. I loved it on that side of town, many amazing memories and many beautiful things to see. How about Red top Mountain?

That's your view, gel-o? I am jealous!

Nice to see how you practise with the different tools! I like the result :)

Hay mooki.....just you wait.....feeding the brain beans when you get old ain't the half of it. Oh to be young again!
Xina...when I dedicated my Bebo site to Alfred over on bebo.....I had the youtube music from his half hour show. If anyone wants some nastalgia....go there and check it out!

this will bring you to my bebo and then scroll down to the video box and hit play (on the right hand side). There are also some clips from psycho there. tee hee.

oh QT, you overlook the fact that you need an account to see said video
:}
anyways your as young as you act in life, so act young baby and you got it made.
note: doesnt work for leather bag anorexic old women

oh, I'm sorry, maybe just go to youtube and down load there.....it brings back such memories. I think i do act young but the body (and brain) still do not respond.

QTgillie- The applets aren't set up in a way for you to import textures from anywhere, so you'll have to draw them yourself. What davincipoppalag did here was draw the sky as if it was wood, the sea as if it was made of bricks, etc. If you have any questions about it go ahead and ask.

Brick water must be hard on the rudder. Cute idea & nice draw.

as far as I can see this is the only finished entry that matches the criteria of the contest . . .

Gloworm, This is very beautiful. Such colors and detail.

VEry beautiful "Gloria!

beautiful, nice job.

Oh Sweetcell, this is Great! I love the moon.

the detail in the moon makes it look so real . . .

Very nice work here! I do love the moon.

Thanks so much Starz for comments, your opinion always welcome!

I just saw one of these in my back yard......great job!

gerry....aren't they cool?!

Looks like foil wrap! There is that color thing you have! Super Xina!

Makes me crave candy, for some reason!

three cheers from me! love the bright colors very cool!

Excellent job. I love all the different textures.

Hey Starz - the sheen on the gold satin is just TOO real! the fringing, the bell, the embroidery on the face - all amazing.

Terry......I can't believe I missed commenting on this. I have looked at it so many times and I guess I was so engrossed in all of the detailing I thought I had commented. I love the whole draw, but my favorite part about it is the one piece of cording that comes down from the bell. I can't quit staring at it. It looks like you could reach right out and take it from the picture, seeing the side of it and the perfect details you have put into it. Wow! Masterpiece is quite the understatement for this. Mardi gras memorabilia has always taken me aback, and this would be a perfect addtion to all that I already have.
