The red sky photo. Excuse my clumsy posts folks.

With frustrating hand tremors, I have turned my focus to photography. Here is a breathtaking sunset I got this past Spring, as we waited for a major thunderstorm headed our way. This is looking West, toward Dallas. It seems it was a freak combination of the sun setting behind thunder clouds, reflecting off the raindrops.

I happened to walk into our office, that evening, and it looked like the sky was on fire! It reminded me of a smoke filled sky, when there is a massive forest fire.

Here are a couple of my peices from this past week. The herding one is still being worked on but the other two are finished and delivered. That is my handsome Nephew

I have actually just been asked to donate some of my peices / gift certificate for a personalized portrait to a rescue group so I am super excited. It is not the first time I have been asked to donate, nor the first or only time I will donate but every time for me is super exciting hehe.

Very nice! Your portraits remind me of a pencil drawing I did of my son when he was 8 months old. I made the mistake of doing it on newsprint, because that was all I had at the time. DS is now 38 and the drawing is long gone, since it turned so brown, that the drawing was hard to see.

Good for you, donating portraits for charity. That's awesome!

Awe I am so sorry! That is heartbreaking!

Thank you.

If you're willing to risk it you might spray it with a workable fixative and trace the darkened image then work a new piece. I sometimes trace my own work to transfer an image or to archive it.

For Samantha drawz, such nice work! I'd like to start an animal portrait biz but I'm going to have to make major changes to do it. Paraphrasing a farm wife's blog- if you don't do your chores something wilts, suffers or dies. Not that you need it but I've found The Big Book of Realistic Drawing Secrets by Carrie Stuart Parks a very good study. Uh ohagain.
