Those are so nice, Grapes, with lots of good reference potential. I like the tan color of the box - no bright white to deal with!

Nice finish! I suggest you treat yourself to that cute sharpener.

I’m really liking your moody winter flowers, Wayne. They seem to be just as expressive with soft lighting as with direct sunlight. That’s my kind of fancy, formal vase too. 🙂

I’m glad you found a good tutorial, Jade. I’m guessing you need to keep your pencils sharp to do the fur so well. (My hand is slowly healing. I can hold a pencil now but can’t put any pressure on it. It feels like there are a million muscles that need to get stronger.)

Incredible! I can’t stop admiring the work on his hands!

Adorable and so well painted. I like the light-filled background too.

Beautifully done - and super cute!

They are so beautiful together, Sno! It was so helpful to see how you brought them to a finish. I meant to ask if you always paint on cotton canvas or if you ever use linen?

Oh my goodness, those eyes! Excellent!

A little light changes everything. The bright pinks and greens are lovely!

That looks plenty done to me - and it’s really beautiful! I can’t believe the water droplets and how much they add to the life-like look. I’m sure this just glows in person and we all know how hard it is to get the colors right in photos.

Such a quiet mood. I like how there aren’t many hard edges and the vase isn’t overly defined. Everything seems to be affected by the soft haze from outside. This is a keeper, right Wayne?

I like that concept too. What a striking image!

Thanks for the new vocabulary word, Bongo. Great captures of life’s little moments! I like the little boy by the wall and the way his shadow keeps him company.

You made such a warm autumn glow in this one. It’s gorgeous! I have arthritis in my wrists so I understand how it makes painting a struggle. Hopefully you can find a way to keep painting - even a little bit.
