Yes, were in Germany, we'll be here for another 2 -2 1/2 years. Its exciting hearing new people are coming over. =) How have you been?
Craig - how are you? haven't heard from you either, lol. Hope things are going ok.
Hugs to you both! |
So glad to see you posting again! I am wondering if you received my PM I sent you several days ago. This post sounded like perhaps you had not heard from me so thought I would mention I did send one. When I didn't hear back, I figured you were just busy with the kids or maybe not feeling well. So glad you are back!!! | |

Hey there Erica! You always catch emotion in your drawings, a certain mood, look, etc. I like the way the girls clothes show through just a bit through the long hair. Realistically, long hair does fall gently and not heavily over the clothes. That is something good for me to remember when doing my drawings. We can always learn from one another, not just about art but about life. One of my best college instructors taught not only art but life, with every breath and word that he spoke. I had some instructors that had no passion for life or art and it makes a huge difference in what one takes away from the class. I just want to see passion in whatever one does. I am sure you are passionate about raising and loving your children, your art, and others! Glad to see you back!  | |

| I too really like the fact that the clothing shows through the hair!
Have you done anything that uses colors, Erica? Maybe I missed something that you might have posted earlier on, though. | |

Really good job with the nose! I just can NOT do a nose! The eyes and eyebrows have a lot of character, too. I am wondering what would happen if you tried to be a bit less defined while you work - a bit lighter handed?
You really do have artistic ability. Classes would probably help you fine tune some of your weaknesses, while building upon your strengths. I don't know how you find time to look after your little family, draw and be online! Now THAT'S a talent!
