I like all three of these. I think your use of a singlular color adds a uniquie feeling, I'm not sure how to describe it, to the portraits that is lost with multiple realistic colors. You are creating something that evokes feelings and emotions which is more than just a great rendering of the subjec...

I like the composition and the flow of the lines. It is kind of a challenge for me to see the entire pieces because the size is larger than my screen (pehaps it is the setting on my monitor). I do think the first and last one call out for just a bit of color. If it were my work I would be inclined t...

This is GREAT. I think most of us are more critical of our work than others because we believe that we have the ability to do better and therefore we keep doing more to do better, also since we create it we see little things that others don't. At some point we must accept that a piece is done and yo...

Very very nice! I watched the development on WIP and the end result is great. I have experimented with colored pencil with some satisfaction but have never combined it with water color. I think I am going to have to try this. I am curious does the wax base for the colored pencil resist the water col...

I liked the web site and your work. In particular I enjoyed "Fishing on Carroll Creek". The site is a very straight forward approach to getting your information out there and looks very clean and professional. I have used goggle pages before and was never able to get them indexed in the se...

I have volunteered to help a new local non-profit organization which provides services for special needs/disabled children. I need to develop a program of 4 to 6 sessions with art projects which they can complete in each one hour session and take home with them. I have some ideas based on some resea...

I have had my web site up for about 4 months and have had almost 1000 hits on it. I have sold several prints and received commissions for five original works. However, the web site is just one tool, a place for people to see what I am doing and to place an order. I attribute my sales to other market...

I think what happend is the post included the "period" at the end of my sentence as part of the hyperlink. Lets try this:

That fixes it. Thanks for letting me know!

I have played around a bit with building web sites over the past 7 years and even bought special programs for it. I am a little tech challanged at times but one of the easiest automated web site builds I have found has been Microsoft Office Live. It is simple to use, flexable with a few limitation, ...
