I don't think I have words to describe how awesome your work is. I have recently started colouring with coloured pencils and I know how difficult it is to make shadows and lights correct. Your artwork is really great, I wish you are always healthy and well and produce many other stunning pieces of art like this. Congratulations <3

thank you so much for you good wishes and comments...it takes time to learn how to layer the pencil to get the effect YOU want, but I know you will find the look that's right for you

Wow, you have done a brilliant job, you gave an amazing fairytale feel with the cleverest use of fading and blending everything to add a great mix of emotional appeal. Not to mention all the details, even the little ones, fill the image with awe-inspiring looks that show exquisite work that give me a great emotional feeling; like I'm about to read my favorite book once again.
I guess it's not much coming from someone who can not draw so much as a tree to acceptable levels but I hope this shows you that people appreciate your work.

No, you expressed yourself very well. You don't have to draw or paint to have something inspired or helpful to say about a work of art...all you have to have is eyes and a heart and you expressed yours very well. Thank you so much for taking the time and effort to do so. I hope you have a very Merry Christmas and Holiday Season.

I guess words can motivate more than I thought, I'm seem to frequently motivate people quite a bit. I'm embarrased that you replied so politely back to me. I'm gonna get back to work now, bye!

The more I look the more stories I see; and I stop, close my eyes and look again knowing I will be pleasantly surprised once again.

that's one of the nicest things you could say, and the 'close the eyes' is one of the nicest things any artist could hear about any of their work, thanks so very much...glad you liked it....when I was working on it I meant it as a portrait with some of my favorite things but kept finding overlapping thoughts, ideas and meanings by the different combinations of things that I hadn't consciously thought of...so I'm glad you can get different stories out of it too Merry Christmas!

This is amazing!
It has such a strong emotion to it, but I don't know how to describe it. It's almost like a mix of the past with the future. The dragon and the lady.
Beautiful!
