Thanks Hillary!
I'm so glad the sky has worked the way I wanted it to. That's the feel I was going for, like the sun had just set.

That looks simply gorgeous; I love your works! It is amazing how you get that soft glow and those smooth gradients! Each work I see of you gets better by the minute and I always enjoy the atmosphere in your paintings.
You really should get some prints produced; they would do well with the good amount of advertisement.

Great work once more sweetie!

Thankyou so much! Your comments are always so wonderful & constructive... They mean a lot to me!

Well, hopefully in the next couple of weeks I'll have a brand new printer so I'll be able to start producing my own prints & other things. I'm quite excited about it!

Thanks!
Oh those folds gave me grief. Just the colour mixes I was using I suppose... That & I didn't want to make things too dark & then not be able to fix them up later if I needed to. I'm such a wimp when it comes to colour! Something that would be done in 4 layers takes me about 14 layers!

Ooooooooh, that is sublime! Fabulous, wonderful and not all that bad either. The purple and the craters on the moon are particularly good.

Thanks!

It's funny that you should mention the craters/moon. It's actually the part that I'm least pleasd with. I'm happy if it works, but working on it bugged me. But as long as it doesn't look too crap, then it's all good

Thanks for the too! Muchly appreciated!

Lol, it's funny the things others see in our work (or not) that's part of the thrill for me. I'd love to write a play or movie to see my creation interpereted through someone else's lens.
