I remember making 'Consult' available as a print after you asked me to but I haven't done so in general.

Truth is, Carole, I can't for the life of me figure out how to make one of them large enough with my old Photoshop Elements program or the graphic converter. No matter how I enlarge one of these 8x11's on my screen the pixel count stays the same.

oh right - I think we already discussed this 
btw - my scanner allows me to choose the pixel count - but not yours?

This looks so lovely! Your pictures have such a strong narrative-like feel to them. Like there is just so much story in them that the viewer can wonder about.

Thanks so much, Akitku. That's about the best compliment of my work I could ask for.
I hope your Thessa got through her surgeries okay and is recovering quickly now.

It is so british, the pier theme with the shaky old warehouses & the friendly knight's dragons/creatures. I love how you did the waves in the water. Adorable altogether.

I'm so old I remember when the London Docks looked a bit like this. Painting water is still
a major challenge for me so it makes me feel good an expert such as yourself approves.

Mr. Dog's going to vote

You could be right, Jarod. There's certainly something mysterious happening here.

I really 
your color - your composition - your application is impeccable -
not to mention your exceptional detail - really wonderful
and this one has whimsical humor - as my story line
tries to decide 
they both look quite happy - but is that because they've come upon 
or recognize the little girl as a very good and faithful friend come out to play?
btw - does your reoccurring little girl character have a name?

I really appreciate the fact you do
I'm really enjoying the experience of painting these pictures for the
simple fact they're as much an adventure for me as they are for
anyone looking at them. If there's a story I'm also waiting to
see where it goes next
