So pretty!!!!!

Well said.

These are beautiful, Crystal! The first paintings make me think of The Shire and elves (Lord of the Rings, and all that). But they really are breathtaking!

Thank you

Nice paintings. I love to look at your work. I check daily to see if you posted a new painting and enjoy the ones you have posted.

So pretty!...I loved watching the progression of this piece Crystal...

Thank you, Leigh!
I'm hoping to finish it soon, getting a bit fed up with it.
The tree's got roots now :)

Oh my god! I sold a painting, totally out of the blue! I'm sooooo happy!!!
It's going to the States, hihi, so suddenly I'm an international selling artist

Well done Picassofairy! Proud of you!

All of your work is great but the unicorn is amazing! You can watch him think!

Thank you Larsson



@ Metalwing,

* The Unicorn is for sale as well *

I like the unicorn too, I don't often paint animals, not really my thing, and a horse (okay, unicorn) ain't particularly easy.

Congratulations Crystal!!!...Well done!

Thank you, Leigh!

I never posted the painting that's gonna move to another country here. It's this one :)

Not sure if you have ever watched Bob Ross on PBS before or not. He would use a long brush laid across the easel to steady (rest) his hand on. I have used dowel rods, yard sticks and even wooden spoons for the same reason. It's difficult to get into the mood sometimes for me and I find if I stop because something won't work, the painting or drawing never turns out as I saw it to begin with.

very very nice not tried oils yet into water colours and acrilics will try em soon like way you get deep colours that stand out hard to get in water colour

oh wow, just found this.

i cant draw a circle or a straight line, (figuratively) but i do appreciate those who can.

very nice!

.. yes I just noticed it when it surfaced.. you're very talented...omg.. I was just about to sign off. and slip into lala land. when I saw your topic.. please forgive me I did not go to the very top... I will look tomorrow... but I am assuming.. this is a start to finish the project.. once again you're incredibly talented.. okay now I'm just rambling on.. time to back out of this topic slowly.. before I tripped over my own tongue... thank you so much for sharing.. if I haven't already said it..omg. absolutely beautiful.. goodnight everyone..

.. please overlook spelling mistakes I already took my glasses off..

Thank you all!

PhD, you may wanna put your glasses on again, I got a new painting.
ALMOST done, needs a bit more work. It's for my daughter, she requested this, quite a challenge, I'm not so into animals/horses, but I must say I'm proud of myself, so far!
Hope I'm not gonna bugger it up when I do the finishing touches! (The bridle needs more work amongst other things)
