Evelyn, I am looking forward to your reflected hand....!!!!
Evelyn, this is a beautiful drawing. I love the ghostly lines surrounding the hand.
Thanks, Meridith!! Visible process :)
Yes, I love how the viewer is engaged in the art making when we leave traces of the process.
How sweet. What beautiful paws! I love his coloring!
Hello D.R., you should add another hand...ah paw picture!
This is a photo of my pen and ink drawing ”Signora della Casa Lace Dress” hanging in my living room. I thought the hands on the drawing would fit the theme well!
Also, if you look carefully, you will see Claudia’s ceramic hand on the mantle.
Wow, the detail is exquisite!
@evelyn.rv.beliveau thanks Evelyn!
I'm heree!!!🔥
Blaze, I am waiting for your hand image! You should do a sketch, or maybe if you have paints, a painting. You are so good with color!
Hi Blaze, So glad you’re here!!
This is also where you can upload pictures.
Cool hands out there! ❤️
@harris Thanks Randall! I hope you continue to post!
Lithography plate
Vera, Will you please explain what you mean by Lithography plate? We would love to hear more about it!
Vera, this is a beautiful piece!! It’s perfect for the inspiration
Catherine, Show us some hands in Italy today. Are you calm? Are you feeling blue? Are you cooking something delicious?
Catherine, This is a beautiful photograph. I think this could also fit in the thread Quentin started called "Soul Food"!
"Me, reaching for my crystals...."
This image was created using a combination of Micron pens and Chromatek watercolors.
Oh, Jenn, these are fantastic!!!!
I like that you’ve included the artmaking tools in your image.
I did!
A work in progress... My interpretation of "Sabrina, the Teenage Witch," using Micron pens and Chromatek watercolor brushes.
Jenn, I love looking at this piece as it develops. You’ve done a great job depicting fire!
