That's a really good copy. If I would of found that, I would of been searching for the artist. Good job!

 

The carving is also nice. It's a good job with what you had to work with.

 

Thank you Armondo

So Bob wrote that??? When I opened the link it was so long I closed it since I was never into the Hunger Games.I will have to read it now

 

Yes, it is a long story and, yes, I wrote it.

 

I'm a colored pencil artist

 

Those are beautiful, Bev!

 

I don't have a website any more. I was in a regular gallery and then a coop gallery for two years, but the partnership is dissolving so I'll probably be looking for a regular gallery to sell my work. You have to pay a bigger percentage, but no rent and no taking turns every week to run the gallery. No headaches.

 

Very nice, Bev - thanks for posting those!

 

You had me at ship.

 

WOW Bev, now thats talent AWESOME

 

I know some have seen these in the past...been a long time since I picked up a brush. These are when I first sold on eBay and the buyer would mail a pic of their pet and I would paint on a goose egg and make into an ornament or for a stand, which ever they choose.
The dressage horse was not totally finished.

. I wish I had taken pics of all.

 

I've seen these some where!!! I can't remember where though.

 

I cannot do people or horses. Cats and dogs, yes. My daughter told me once never to put people in my paintings because they look like cartoon figures.

 

Well, Armando, unless you've been to Saltworks Gallery in Orleans...unless I've had a senior moment and posted them here before. I use my paintings off and on for avatars.

 

I am awful when it comes to finishing paintings. I tried to do this water color then gave up. Also, the bird of Paradise I did with my left hand.....I am right handed.


PS

The teeth marks on the left of the flower was from one of my kitties that wanted attention.

 

I can't do watercolor, so I'm impressed. Everyone thinks if you're an artist, you can use any medium, but it's not so. The teethmarks add panache!

 

I prefer oil or acrylic as you can paint over mistakes

 

This is FAR from talent but I carved this half an avacado seed 51 years ago. It had an eye screw at one time to hang on a cord. After I carved it,I put it in a box and forgot about it. Then when I did find it I saw all the worm holes and how shriveled it was.

It turned into this brown wood.

 

Are they online in the Saltworks Gallery? I can almost guarantee you that's were I probably seen then while looking for an artist around those parts. Those are very familiar.
