That's great Louise. I actually liked the seascape one that you copied from landscape. Technically it looks more difficult.
I haven't tried crashing waves yet..though goodness, we live near ocean..but where we live we don't get crashing waves that are high and super foamy.. unless one is further up north of British Columbian coast..
I enjoy landscapes myself..but now the possibility of making it multimedia/more abstract is starting to percolate in me..
Hey meredith, got any to show..even if you haven't painted in ages? I wanna see more gimster..

They're great, Louisa!!! Did you paint Marginal Way in situ? I have only done one portrait in chalk when I was 14 and even then it was only a copy of a Master. I've not done it since. Thanks for sharing these. I hope you find the time to paint again.
Orchid, in which thread can I find Gim's artwork?

OW WOW, Louisa. I am so impressed! Orchid, goodness I have so few. I had the tendency to give my stuff away. I wish I had the cobra I did for a boss, tho. That thing looked like it was coming off the paper for some reason. My X-boss is probably dead now... I ought to call his son and see if it's still around.
Lola, I don't know if they are still up. That was a while back and I've cleaned up my photobucket files.

Louisa, your work is lovely. I, too, absolutely love the lady with the legs. That's a fascinating painting and one I'd love to have at home. And of course your ocean scenes are an all time favorite and so well done...you're one talented lady!

WOW...Louisa!!!! I'm just now getting around to this forum...goodness girl!!! You are an incredible artist. Each one is so beautiful and I love the one on your street with snow. You're amazing. How long does it normally take you to paint a picture from start to finish? Did you go to school or is it a natural talent? I'm so proud of you and what you can express with a brush and paint...not everyone can do this, me for sure, and I admire those who can. Congratulations!!!! HUGS ALL AROUND

This quote is borrowed from an artist's bio, with her permission: " Just as an ordinary human being must struggle to become a noble person, so the ordinary artist must struggle to develop those skills whereby he or she can express the creative impulse." I thought it was pretty nifty. The artist's website: http://www.cazam.net/
