I haven't posted any of my work on here lately, but then I haven't done any lately (my last being that Kinks painting) as I've been quite poorly I finally got out my sketch book today and did a pencil drawing of Ray. It's not perfect and the photo's not that great either (I took it! ) but I was just happy to be drawing again. It's not quite finished but here's what I have so far - (I always get a bit nervous about posting my drawings!) That's outstanding Sleepwalker! You really made it very lifelike. I wish I had that kind of artistic talent.

Thanks so much Holly, Tim and Uncle! It didn't think it was one of my best so thankyou! Holly, if you don't mind I'll take it as a compliment that you think you know which picture I used for reference! Tim, I really appreciate your kind comments, and you don't need artistic talent when you write such great poetry!

You are such a talented young lady Sleepy as your recent writings have further illuminated ! This is very nice! I know that you put several hours into this drawing and it shows that labour of love! I think the detail on the lips is very good! You made a very good foray back into drawing after leaving it dormant for awhile; I guess it's ONLY NATURAL for you!

Thanks so much for the kind compliments John! Now I just need to find time to finish it and make a few adjustments.

Just an update on my Ray drawing - I spent a few hours on it this evening as I wasn't happy with some bits of it. I still have more to do but I made progress with shading, changing bits here and there etc. I think it's a little better, it's closer to the picture I'm drawing from. Ray looked to happy in my initial posting!!

Absolutely fantastic Sleepy ! I bet Ray will be supremely honored by this great work of art devoted to him!

Tim, John - thanks so much my friends! I'm touched by your kind comments I'm hoping that I'll be starting another drawing or painting soon, as well as some tattoo designs.

Thanks Kinkcan! I appreciate your compliments - especially since you are such a great artist! I bought some new paints and a canvas today and have something in mind for a new painting.

I don't consider myself a great artist, but when it comes to compliments, I can take almost anything ! What kind of paint did you buy ? Acrylic, oil ?
