Hi Randy,

Thanks for your comments on the Dried caps and immature nuts of the Macrocarpa Gum.

Sorry for the delayed response - I have not been on site for a while.

Regards,

Gail

Hi Randy,

I love your honest remarks.  I was also drawn to the two woman chatting..  I felt I just had to paint it.  This is my second painting from the same artist, Daniel Knight.  I also felt it needed some yellow. :)) My yellow flowers I painted were a bit small. Everyone else makes landscapes sound so easy.  I really suck at landscape and the truth be know I also struggle a bit with it. I am sure it's the dull greens and browns I see everyday.   I am more comfortable painting people and abstracts....

 

It is so bizarre that you said I must paint my own interpretation in whatever I see.  I was painting around the same time that you wanted to chat, I had my computer on, and was probably too engrossed in what I was doing to hear the chat bell... But guess what. I painted my own interpretation of the view outside my window!!  Can you believe it.  Your thoughts must have influenced me in some way.  I have also been unable to paint for about 2 weeks.  Too sad, I messed up my previous painting.

 

When I started I was in a panic because I wet the paper and wanted to use it straight away and there was no time to draw in pencil on wet paper,  so I just used my brush like a pencil and then painted intuitively.  And now for the surprise.  The trees are YELLOW!!!  But in fact they are a very dull green.  I

 

I have hated the colour of these dull blue gum trees for a very long time, but lately have made friends with them... To me they are the dull brown bits in the painting you commented on.  What a coincidence you telling me to paint my own interpretation!!  I am blown over, truly!! 

 

In the morning light I will take a picture and post it on my site.

 

I don't usually say this much, but the whole incident is a bit of a shock!!  I hope you understand.  :))

Be patient with me please.  I used to be better at this computer stuff, but am afraid technology might have zoomed on by.  The situation is this.  For over a year (guessing) I was able to just answer e-mail from TCA and I was automatically signed in.  Or I could just go to the site and was automatically signed in. Now, not so.  Why?  I searched the TCA site and can find nothing to "check" that says "remember me".  I HAVE FOUND on Internet Explorier that I want it to remember my passwords.  I am not having any problem with I Draw and Paint (another NING site) that I have been on for longer than The Complete Artist.  I just dont get what has changed?  Liz is also having the same problems.  ///  So, in despiration..........what is safari?

Hi Randy,

Yes, you are right about the airbrushers here. Not doubt there are a lot of new guys coming up through the ranks, but there was a guy called Paul Barker here. His murals used to win at all the car shows. I had not heard of him in 20 years - I thought maybe he had died, as I had searched the net for him for ages. Then last month he turned up in our Aust. Street Rod Assoc mag looking for photos of one of his old cars.

Pity he wasn't still airbrushing - might contact him to see.

Hi Randy,

I only have two photos from the very early days when I started airbrushing - both are works in progress and on old film photos that were not of the best quality either.

and

As I said very early days! Artwork has improved some since then , I think.

Take a look at Eagle Jacket.

Regards,

Gail

Hi Randy,

I have just looked through you website - some really impressive stuff there. I'm not on FB so can't vist there.

I used to airbrush truck air-foils/scoops back in the early 80's. Murals on cars & trucks went out of fashion here(Australia), so give it away. I see it is starting to make a bit of a comeback again with the Hot Rodders' so maybe I had better dust off the airbrush and get some practice in again.

I see in the Street Rodder mag, that Larry Watson , the guy that developed a lot of the techniques we use today, has passed away this year.

I shall look forward to seeing more of your art!

Randy,  Since  you JUST signed up on TCA (The Complete Artist) do you remember CHECKING anything that said "remember me"?  All of a sudden - within the past few weeks - I and Liz have both been bothered by the program not remembering us so we have to type our e-mail and password.  Very frustrating.  I have searched and serched trying to find anything about a NING site to solve the problem.  I found the link above talking about Internet Explorier and Firefox.  I am holding off before I load Firefox, but have had other people recently say it was good and it was fast.  I have no clue if that would solve your issue?  If it does, for goodness sakes tell me.  If I ever figure out why the program will not remember me, then I will post a forum with the solution.  Ro

I did go look on Face book.  Nice gallery.  Why not post something on a Forum and see if someone here has a solution.  Actually, I though I read someplace where RR (Richard Robinson) had a fancy program on his new Mac. hum?  And a very Merry Christmas back to you.  Ro  Also, you might put the link to your FB page where it list your Blog on your page.

Hi Randy,  Good goal - art that looks like no others, but loved by all.  I am still working on something that people will look and say, "How does she do that?"  he he  All kidding aside, welcome to the site.  Ro
