Thank you everyone
Clafairy, I haven't really been exposed to much manga, or tried it, but I do kind of like it, I reckon the eyes in manga art are just amazing

Wow--this thread is a lot to take in. I have been buzzing around this forum for over a week now but--as you told me not to be Clough--I have been way too intimidated to even start a post. Everyone here seems really active in their art, which is great to see. With two kids I don't paint as often as I would like. Though I see that some of you have the same situation and prevail anyway.

Thanks--I've been inspired to buckle down and work with some color--if only to keep the right side of my brain from seizing.

Hi there! So glad to see you post on this thread. This thread is a lot to take in but what a wonderful world of art and friends it has opened up to me. You will see as you read this thread how supportive and kind the posters are. I also felt intimidated to post my work in the beginning but was encouraged to do so yet just had to wait until I felt comfortable. I am so glad I did and you will be also. I am confident of that! I look forward to more posts from you including posts of images of your work.

Here are a few pieces that are typical of me.

The first two are oil pastel on bristol board, 14x17, both done near Gore Mountain in New York. The very first piece is of the Hudson River. Working outside was so much fun. We spent every afternoon of an entire week outside painting.

The second two are of a fabric sculpture done for a show at the Norman Rockwell Museum in Massachusetts. Theme was New Digs for the Dog (reinventing Snoopy's abode, from the Charlie Brown comic). It's fabric, crochet and beadwork built over a metal frame.

Wow I really love what you've done kaleido.
Funny that you did fabric stuff because I'm back in skewl now and our first project in yr 12 art will be to design and make some clothes (only one other guy in the class so I guess it makes sense)
