Standing on "Eagle Rock...."Black Elk" says a prayer to the "Great Spirit"....."All the wings of the air shall come to you, and they and the winds and the stars shall be like relatives". I know this draw doesn't qualify for the advanced board, but I needed a bigger space for this picture. If it needs to be moved.....that's ok. :)

Your source in influence is very unique. Lovely work!

Thank you very much "hladrillo", for your nice comment.....I really do appreciate it. I guess my source of interest for this picture was because it is "Native American". I've always been interested in Native American culture and history, and I love drawing pictures of anything that is "Native American. I started out using a "Ref" picture.....but I made some changes to this draw, and made it my own. It doesn't look anything like the "ref" picture. Thanks again for your nice comment....I'm glad you like the picture. :)

Glass of color

elly (Feb 19, 2009)

I found these awesome crystal (Waterford, I 'think') glass sculptures. The play on light is mind boggling! Very challenging to draw....but had to try anyway....not exactly what I had in mind for my finished piece but it'll do...back to the studio! =)

elly (Feb 21, 2009)

Well thanks, y'all! Why are others always more pleased with a piece of art that the artist isn't.....
I do like this one better than the light house crystal tho.... peace!

Niphaphone? How is she these days? As always a great drawing. Wish I could switch from painterly realism to cartoon art so apparently easily.

Axil62 (Feb 11, 2009)

Yep. She's doin pretty good. Thanks.

firecracker (Feb 11, 2009)

"Wow"! A very beautiful painting.

Perfectly beautiful elly! I grow roses in my yard and I especially love the bi-color flowers like the one you have drawn. Great job!

Pantera (Feb 10, 2009)

I love yellow roses but this one is also beautiful, showcase piece :)

LaVieEnRose (Feb 11, 2009)

so beautiful and delicated...

elly (Feb 11, 2009)

Thank you kindly, everyone.
Come to think of, Pantera..I haven't done a yellow rose. My mother's favorite color flower (any flower) was always yellow.
I'll have to put this in my agenda...
