Thank you very much for your nice words

I wonder, strange thing - on ipad I see the green picture upside down while on a pc or android tablet it is ok. Do you also see it upside down???

The last one? No, they are all three properly oriented but I'm looking in Firefox on my desktop.

I hope you don't mind me offering my opinion?

The first work you posted is just great. I really could see me living with that on a wall in our house. The second is still good, but not, in my opinion, as good as the first, although I still really like it. The third, I'm sorry, I personally could take or leave.

I'm about as far from an artist myself as it's possible to get (I struggle to draw the curtains!), so I hope you'll take these comments in the spirit they're intended. I really wish I could put my finger on what it is about the works that makes me feel what I do, but I'm not sure. Maybe I like the other worldly atmosphere that somebody else mentioned?

Anyway, please keep posting - I'm always in awe of people who have talents in areas I don't.

I know, I'd be so totally appalled if my tastes were were the same as Romney's!

Chi Cygni · 11-27-2012, 05:06 PM

it's late for me now so, shortly, the green one I did after a few months break. And it probably shows. What I think of it is that it lacks in the bottom part. But hey, I can still work on it. Thanks guys. Will write another day.
And pink one looks better in real life

If anything my crit of the last one is that it is too symmetrical. I do like the other aspects of it.

Yes, it is inverted on my iPad. Weird. At first, I thought you must have been drawing it upside down as I do sometimes. Let me add that I like them all but especially the first one. I do monochrome drawings and that would have been an excellent drawing, in my opinion, in pencil or charcoal but the colors make it terrificly eerie. Thank you for posting them and keep it up!

Chi Cygni · 11-30-2012, 07:19 AM

Weird indeed that it is inverted. Anyway I will leave it as is since on a PC and android it is ok. I fully agree that you may or may not like what I draw and no offence taken. But I must say warm words encourage me to continue and criticism to try better

Nice! I like the mist effect.

kennyc · 01-29-2013, 05:54 AM

Very nice!

red_phoenix · 01-29-2013, 08:44 AM

I like the soft, ethereal look. Very nice.

poohbear_nc · 01-29-2013, 10:21 AM

I like the foggy, misty look too - can just imagine droplets condensing on my glasses! Very soothing to contemplate.

Your drawings would make very nice desktops/screensavers!
