4. My favorite is the still life.
Especially the 'unfinished' quality around the edges.


Don't finish it, Sugie! :bounce:

6. I LOVE you: "Don't finish it, Sugie!"
I most certainly will not finish that particular one. :loveya:

Thank you for that. Especially because sometimes I don't know when to quit on a sketch. It was kind of liberating to tell myself at an arbitrary point, "Y'know, it's done, I'm not doing any more now".

Hey, I missed you; did I tell you that?

5. Heidi, you!
I was just looking at your thread! I love your work; One of the things besides your pure energy is the very deliberate way you arrange type on top. Writing in art has always one of my favorite things.

Thank you so much for the compliment!

:loveya: :hugriot:

7. Steerpike1, thank you.
That one was for Dad on Father's Day. It's his favorite place in Paris. I have a ton of photos of Paris, some that I took & some in books. I think of that city as the location of the most densely-packed, human-made beauty.

I love your nature drawings. I'm going to go have another look right now.

10. :happydance:
Thankya Sugz hunneeeee, something finally got through the funk. And now I'm happily torn between 2 ideas vying for my attention :rofl: One is to ELP's Come & See the Show (I think that's the right title) and the other is an idea without a tune that fits: Flipflops & Clownshoes. Nothing's clicked yet, but I'm not letting it go just yet.

Been to see the Bulls yet? :D

:loveya: :hug:

I always look forward to your art Sugz, you're pretty wonderful yourself. :D

Off to try another nap, home sick with a stomach that refuses to play nice.

13. Hey Forkboy-
Thank you! I've always loved detail in other people's work, and I especially love doing it now. The photos I see of Paris are loaded with material to work with. :pals:

14. You! :)
Thanks! I saw your knitting thread and looked on the website. I love it that you put your things out there. I'm trying to do a website but I'm getting all tangled up in tech-language.

I really like your work, too. :D
