Hi Silvana -

Thanks for touching base, but I'm a bit confused.  I got an email from Richard some time ago that I didn't get into this project, so no I haven't done anything :-(  I would have loved to do a piece, but at this point I have little time and I don't want to hold anyone up.

Cathy

Hi Silvana,

Got your email, and I will also send Richard a comment. When I logged in, slice 26 is what was listed, but it looks like the slice is out of sequence, and done already.

Don

Hi Silvana, gosh I am a bit confused. I did Slice-76 (piece 13). I was sure that was the number next to my name but tonight I looked and piece 76 (Slice-3). My Slice-76 was added to the puzzle. Anyway tonight I was all ready to do another one Slice-76(piece 13) when I see that someone else has done it. So it looks like it all turned out OK. Whew. This has been nerve racking as well as exciting. So proud to be part of it. Many thanks for your message.

Hi SIlvana, thank you for welcoming me :-) I will load up some pictures and am curious, what impulses i will get.

Thank you Silvana for your lovely comment on My swan. It is exactly as the photo was I took from him. I have many. Isn't he sweet?

I hope he and his female swan are fine where ever they are.

It is my pleasure to be your friend Silvana.

Hi Silvana, not good to do work on a hungry tummy.  I have been busy all morning voting on all the great artists but now I will have to eat something!

Thank you Silvana for your lovely comment on my Deer.

Love Anja

Thank you so much for remembering Silvana!  I have spent most of the day thanking for all the birthday wishes on facebook!  I have had a great day even though I am not celebrating it, thank I will leave it until next one when I will be 75!!  Imagine, where does time go and I have not got time to be old and am thankful for still being able to golf.

Wishing you a great week end dear Silvana.:)

Hi again Silvana, thank you for the funny happy faces, they could not be seen the usual way so am thanking you this way!!

Hi Silvana!

Yes, he's Von Karajan, I alredy painted three portraits , you see, I'm fond of him like your mother!  Bye ! :)

Mariangela

Beginner or not, you have a gift, fabulous work!

Thanks for your comment!  I sing and play the guitar, long time I don't though.  Where are you from? what province?  Nice pictures from near my place I see!

THANK YOU SILVANA!  I'm lost... I don't know my way about all this cybers...  Your comment is cut just after "darkening a bit the..."  and my intrigue!!  Regarding the uploading, first the image option wouldn't take it so I uploaded it as photo...  As to the size...??? I haven't the foggiest!  How should I do?

HI SYLVANA! Take a look at RICHARD's "How to paint glowing light" video on YOUTUBE -https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bJzqfOQXL_0&list=UU-P36W-in5w_P...  

It is indeed very clear, and might be of help to you...

Sorry... The comment on glowing light was intended for you picture of RIo de las Vueltas...

Precisely, my question goes on this cyber moves in this page.  Could you tell me how you move about... for example, when you publish in the blog, or the forum, or your own page.. who sees what you publish...  I hadn't seen your picture, but only when I entered your page to put up this message...  Where should I go when I enter...  

Thanks for your help... I'm arcaic... as my sons tell me!! JAJAJA!!

Hi Sylvana. Thanks for accepting my friend request and your positive comments re my website. The video won't take long to view. It is just a two minute promo for my first DVD. The acrylics I use are Atelier Interactive and Arylamide is one of the yellows in their range. I use it because it is not as expensive as the cadmium yellows. I don't know what other paint brands use arylamide as a pigment.  

Thanks for your helpful comment Silvana.  It's always good to get objective feedback. much appreciated.

Happy painting, Glen

I really like the colors in your painting Silvana. Good light in your paintings. Well Don!

Thanks for the nice comment on my painting.  Regarding your paintings, I like how you put some color studies into some of them. I need to do that I think as color eludes me sometimes. You also have some great fotos.  Fun to see all your paintings and the colors you choose from the land of Argentina. Fun stuff! Keep it up.

Congrats Silvana on  the well deserved win 

Silvana, that "wow" put a big smile on my face!  Thank you for commenting on my William Trost Richard's study, The Otter Cliffs. 

Thanks for your kind comments on my Bellagio painting, Silvana :)

I'm afraid I deleted the photo so I could upload a more accurate one I took today. Feel free to comment on it again if you like! :)

You're welcome, Silvana : ) You are so kind!  It is great to have more friends : )

Thanks so much Silvana,  I am glad you enjoy the YouTube video about composition.  It was a fun painting. 

Hello Silvana,  Thank you, I love to see elk in the wild, we have them in the area where our summer home is located.  Sometimes we see them walking through the yard. By doing some of the animals we have in that area, while still here in  the desert, I will have something to sell when I get up in the high country.  Maybe a squirrel or deer next...  Thanks again... Chuck  :)  XX   PS   yes those are shadows of my hands..hahhahahahha light was on behind me..  I'll have to be more careful next time   :)  

Hello Silvana and thank you for the like on my piece of art. Have a great day.  Lamoine

of course (:

Hi:  I'm happy you liked my pic.  Looking forward to your latest.  J.

Thank you for taking the time to comment on my WIP rose painting in the Flemish method (the umber layer).  I appreciate it.    Silvana, the trick is to have more than one painting going at a time so while one is drying you still have something to paint on.  I have a thing that I think of..........I dont care how long a painting takes me, if it is the best thing I have ever done.  I just want to paint and so if I am painting on the same painting it makes no difference.....I am still painting.  I am not after quantity in #s of paintings finished, I am after quality of the best I can do.  Flemish has never let me down.....they are always superior to anything (other method) I have ever tried.  

Hello Silvana,  thank you for your comment and thought.  Is scratch art painting, hmmmm  in a way it is.  When I have created my basic picture I then apply a light wash of watercolors and when it's dry I scratch again.  These steps are repeated until I am satisfied with the work.  Applying many watercolor washes to achieve the desired result is the same as I do in my watercolor works  and my ink and watercolor washes.  By numerous applications of w/c paint and re-scratching a certain texture and depth is achieved..  So, painting, yes and maybe no.   :)     But still a beautiful multi-media art piece can be had....   Chuck :)  XX

Silvana, I don't know why you can't comment on my work. I'm sure you have been able to before.  Do you know how I would fix that? Thanks for bringing it to my attention.

Hello Silvana,  Muchas Gracias!!!  I am glad you enjoyed my 'nino' with is fishing pole.  I looked at your art and very much enjoy your style of painting.  I am basically a watercolorist but this past Sept while on a trip to the UK I met an artist who introduced me to scratch art and I fell in love with this medium.  It's excellent for furry animals and I do many pet portraits on commission..Again, thank you for commenting on my art..  Chuck (mismo de Carlos) Warner  :)  XX

Thank you for taking the time to let me know you enjoyed my painting and video of the A Pond Full of Water Lilies.  Love your gallery.  Just beautiful.  

Thank you Silvana,  I'm delighted that you enjoyed Memories and I see it activated your memory too...  Chuck  :)   XX

Thank you very much Silvana. It looks like a really good forum with loads of creative people. Looking fwd to experiencing more and meeting like minded people...

Thank you Silvana for your lively comment on my eagle painting. 

Thank you Silvana for your kind words.  I very much appreciate them..  Chuck :)  XX
