Oh, that is stunning! I think you may have found your true medium. Wow.

The Gibson Guitar company are running a contest, in which you can design your own guitar. The Hubs thinks this painting would look stunning as a guitar finish. I quite agree!

Thanks! I just love playing with colors. I always have.

I had a looksee at the Gibson challenge, because it does sound cool. Unfortunately only Zeh Americans may enter. So this Dutchie can't come and play...( it would have been awesome, as I've been an avid guitar player since I was 11. For a moment I had a dream of owning a Les with my art on it....)Ah alas. Earwax.

You can enter in my name and I'll send it to you! I'd hate to see such a talented artist AND guitar player not have the chance to win!

I am squeezing you sooooo damn hard right now!!!

Yes.

However, the rules state that you have to go and pick up some form and template in one of their stores. Probably to minimize stuff like this. * frown*

That leaves me with fairly little ( except for the happy warm glow you're giving me, because you are fantastic). However, if you want I can send you the original scan in a larger size. That's all I can do from my part of the world. Unless I am seeing things wrong, which is likely. ( I never said I was the sharpest tool in the box, just the most colorful)

I'm looking through all your posts to create icons of SS/HG.

When Teddy posted this picture, I fell in love. I don't think I ever told you how much I am head over heels for this. It is absolutely stunning and takes my breath away every time I look at it.

I want this to be hanging on one of my walls. So gorgeous.

Thank you sooo much!

I'm only now fully discovering the sheer love that is working with watercolors. This was an exceptional to create (as a matter of fact, it IS hanging on my wall, framed and all. I even painted the wall to complement it!
I love working with that stuff, and I really hope to create more like these along the way.

Go ahead, I bet she'd love to hang on your wall, feisty little thing that she is!
