The stripe patterns of each of these animals vary, none have the same set of lines and are difficult to paint I imagine.<BR/><BR/>You turned the canvass with 5 zebras on it? Wow Kim, that must have felt like being kicked by all of them! :-)<BR/><BR/>I'm sorry your arm isn't as good yet, and I know you must have told the doctor his portrait will have to age a bit. However, seeing what has been completed is already a stunner! Yet deep inside I can feel this would not satisfy you. In your mind, you know its incomplete and you already have a vision of what it would look like when its fully done; and that's where you want to be. And only then will you release it with your name attached to it.<BR/><BR/>An artist's heart beating with an artist's soul is what I see in you. <BR/>Get well Kim, and God bless you and other artists like you. Your talent is a gift. I herewith express my thanks. --Durano, done!durano lawayan a.k.a. brad spithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10432711769928256631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3992881453598446374.post-22446314729341633612008-02-01T16:19:00.000+11:002008-02-01T16:19:00.000+11:00thanks Komik :)thanks Komik :)Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08308898926898440376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3992881453598446374.post-35069604666041874422008-02-01T16:11:00.000+11:002008-02-01T16:11:00.000+11:00thanks very much Speedy...it would be great if I c...thanks very much Speedy...<BR/>it would be great if I could click my fingers and say BE GONE!!!<BR/>I am having my moments of withdrawal where I have to just put it to the back of my mind...<BR/>and of course that African painting is the culprit that I originally injured my shoulder on....<BR/>it certainly has taught me a lesson when it comes to turning paintings...<BR/>in retrospect maybe I should have shoved it over the balcony :)Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08308898926898440376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3992881453598446374.post-55456691642101162852008-02-01T15:34:00.000+11:002008-02-01T15:34:00.000+11:00i like iti like itAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3992881453598446374.post-17606009560596566892008-02-01T14:47:00.000+11:002008-02-01T14:47:00.000+11:00Hi Kim!I really feel for you missing your passion....Hi Kim!<BR/>I really feel for you missing your passion. I wish the frozen shoulder "BE GONE"!<BR/>I had a wrist problem last summer, and missed some of my golf season. Unrealated, but I do know the frustration of not being able to do something you love as much as one would hope.<BR/>I am so looking forward to the completion of your projects once you can get to them. Your talent has a personal touch that many others lack. I think the real quality of any work is the ability to look upon it for more than just a passing glance, and see beauty beyond the canvass.<BR/>The African landscape still holds my attention ... <BR/>Hug for you, just not to "bear-like" Ha haaa!!!<BR/><BR/>EricSpeedcat Hollydalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01207240842689917922noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3992881453598446374.post-33684005496726182612008-02-01T08:18:00.000+11:002008-02-01T08:18:00.000+11:00thanks John...this photo was taken late afternoon ...thanks John...<BR/>this photo was taken late afternoon with a flash...so there was quite a lot of glare from outside...we have very bright sunlight over here in Australia :)Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08308898926898440376noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3992881453598446374.post-47072013821247087142008-02-01T02:45:00.000+11:002008-02-01T02:45:00.000+11:00Kim, great works in progress - also am enjoying th...Kim, great works in progress - also am enjoying the sliver looking out to the real world you see.<BR/><BR/>I added a Technocrati button to my tweo blogs...my best.John M.
