  Great to see an original from origin... so to speak. I think this painting will be outstanding Kim (they always are)
  My personal favorites when it comes to art, have been larger paintings. I'm not sure why. Could be that you visualize them from a distance, and are able to see tones and shades blend together.
  
  That and my eyes are old and SHOT!! Thank goodness for corrective lenses.
  
  Thanks for the stop, your friend Eric

  Yellow & Red..
  One of my favourite combinations..
  You would have seen that small artwork I did on Independence Day of India.
  Looks good to me!!

  thanks Anand...
  it's a good colour combination isn't it....
  and your Independence Day is very patriotic !
  I'm hoping to have this finished before Christmas :)

  I like it already! The scale of this painting is so in keeping with the vastness of the African landscape - are we going to get regular updates? I hope so, it will be a fascinating insight to how you paint :)

  thanks Diane...
  yes it's going on a very long wall so the size and format will fit into the proposed decor quite nicely ...
  I'd love to paint this as a mural :)
  I'll try to do regular updates.....
  haha....hopefully it won't be too many ;)

  OOoooooo, I can hardly wait for you to complete this one, Kim. It's one that I'd love to have in my home. *hint, *hint.

  haha MA
  I thought this one might be right down your alley !!!
  Congratulations on your openid launch at your blog too :))

  Thanks Girly! I think I botched it though. My OpenId goes to my profile doggone it. I'm trying to set it up like you did Laketrees for when I'm out low riding on the net. We'll see which way this mop flops, won't we?
  
  I really enjoy bold colors. My home is an array of colors. I get a lot of compliments on it. This piece of yours would do it proud... ahem. Just in case you really wanted to know. ~:o)

  hmmmm MA
  are you typing in your blog URL? which open Id are you using?....
  Debbie Dolphin explains it all better at her site...which is set up like mine..
  haha I can just picture your place being wild with bold colour :)
  for some reason I see a lot of sunflower yellow :)

  Sunshine yellow isn't even a splattering at my joint although there are varying shades of yellow in bits and pieces scattered around.
  
  I'm going to see what type of damage I've done with this latest attempt at OpenId to see if it will lead to the blog instead of to my profile.

  yikes !!!

  Looks like you're embarking on a very ambitious painting, Kim. I like them large, too! You can really take in the color, texture and detail from across the room, so much more so than with a small work. There's a real difference in visual impact. And isn't that what it's all about?
  
  Can't wait to see it "populated" with all those animals!
  
  Your balcony looks beautiful.

  I think I hafta sign in using my google acct with this thang.

  Clicking on your ID also takes me to your profile as it does mine. I reckon that for it to be any other way would mean that I would need a WP account or use some other acct of mine, like with AOHell or sumpin..

  hi Lynda
  thanks....the balcony is a great width and good for lighting......
  you're right seeing the big picture really helps when you work on this scale :)
