WOW Sophia !!! What an absolutely incredible painting. I'm normally not a big fan of mineral art, but it has certainly changed my thoughts.

Hope to see many more in the future. My wife is an artist also. I will see if I can convince her to let me post a few.

Craig.

Nice looking. I can't tell, is it watercolor, oil, acrylic? Keep it up, I wish I had 1/5th the talent to do something like that!!

Wow, I was way off! I may take lessons one of these days at the Adult Center here, if I can find the time...

Hello,

Very nice one. Although I tried sometimes coloring my drawing with pencils, I've never got any satisfaction in the results. So I really admire the people who can do this so accurately.

Regards,
Sebastian Möller
