  3. your art is like a dream filled with mystery, the colours - textures add to the dream like quality. i always find dreams far more intense then 'real' awake times - your art is the same.

  9. Beautiful!! Just everything about it is great, the colors, textures and general feeling. Very dreamy indeed, but a good dream, the kind that we do and not wanting to wake up of... :)

  11. She's obsessed by the new opportunities in life. And doesn't see the obscurity of future (the mirrors don't reflect anything!)But she won't get lost, because of the very strong connection with her roots.
    That's what I think, while admiring your beautiful dreamy drawing in warm brown, Amalia!
    Hugs!x

  12. Hey ah I came the other day and felt that my comment would not do justice to the image so I was tacitutn :) Can you belly belive that? hah, moi! Yes I see a long journey here, a mysterious ending behind the door and a visit to the fortune teller who will tell me not have another cookie because they have MSG.....

    but seriously, i like how you have visted once more the emotive correlative. Iconography can be archetypal and personal. and the best type is both. Just like yours.

    I have started holding my breath. Are you going to do the wheel barrow trick?

  13. Ahhhh... your Andromeda is simply gorgeous, as are all your creations. I say go ahead and follow your heart, it doesn't need boxes!

    Thanks for the tutorial below. Very interesting! I have learned my limited knowledge of digital mediums by fumbling around. And, a little lynda.com, but mostly fumbling.
