anything arty? a special place for us creative poeple :)

[Piglet]

Actually GG I've been back and had another look - I wonder what 'rock pool', 'pebbles' or 'water' would look like black and white????

Mirry went and had a look on hubbys site - is that the spinaker tower thingy!!!

Love Piglet :flowers:

[groovygranny]

Wow, Mirry - they're awesome!!:yesyes:

I particularly like the one of South Parade Pier - even if it is where I had my very first panic attack on the rollercoaster there back in 1968 lol !!:ohmy: :ohmy: :ohmy:

And with two grandsons this is what they use my bedroom for http://student.dc.lincoln.ac.uk/~u032696006/AP10013/part1/monkeyimages/bedjumpin.gif.......so not a fluffy thingy in sight......and definitley no p.i.n.k. !!


PinkyPiglet - if I had to de-clutter my house, I'd need a dozen skips and 18mnths to do it in!! And that's just the downstairs lol !! And think of all the wildlife I would be making homeless.....I've become very attached to Boris, the hairy arachnoid who lives in the hole behind the bath-panel !!! http://iesmileys.com/img/animals/iesmileys0016.gif (http://iesmileys.com/)

Tell you what, I'll do a choice of effects on the pics and email 'em to you ok?

No payment necessary my friend - just the lifelong promise that you won't hang 'em anywhere near anything pink and yukky ok??!!! http://iesmileys.com/img/sick/iesmileys1686.gif (http://iesmileys.com/)

[celeste]

Sorry guys not sure how to make them smaller! :unsure:

[celeste]

lol , you two are so funny , I would love to see a photo of the new room Piglet . GG is that your room ? where are the cuddly toys, the pink fluffy slippers and the water bottle ?

here is my hubbys web site .........
http://hampshire-photos.co.uk/


Love your hubbys photo's! :yesyes:

[mirry]

nice photo celeste , the airplane looks big !!! wow .
Is it on the south coast by any chance ?


Piglet , love the idea of pebbles over the plug holes , that really made me laugh,,, would a house brick be ok cos i have no pebbles to hand ?:blush:


GG , 1968 :ohmy: , that was the year i was born:whistles: , south parade seem to have that effect on people i think , my son had his first one there cos it was full of pigeons that he had to walk thru to get out of there .

[mirry]

oh wow the other photo is brill too, i so want to know where it is in the uk ?

nosey or what !!!

[Piglet]

GG - that would be lovely sausage!!

I feel I can see any of the last three already on the wall - I like all the images because you don't feel you are fighting with them do you, they have a lovely organic feel.

I think what I would do with which ever one I like best is get it done via the 'next' art site where you can either choose to have it enlarged then framed - thinking white mountboard and white or silver frame to keep it feeling flowy and fluid. However the river one shaugh 7 wouldn't really need to be much larger cos my water element corner isn't very large.

I love the whole feng shui principle - suffice it to say I now have no possessions and we are sitting on patio furniture on bare floorboards but at least its in the fame and reputation corner lol!!!:blush: :roflmao:

You lot are really clever with your cameras - youngest piglet is thinking about taking photography a level next year!!

Love Piglet :flowers:

[mirry]

lol , Piglet i used to take a interest in this subject many years ago , I had a small money plant and put it in our wealthy corner and it did bring us some money (now its all gone tho ,lol).

Also , my house faces a open road ahead so apparently all the energy runs down it onto our house, but out door step is square which is good cos it stops it comming into the house apparently ,lol.
If you have a rounded half moon door step then you wil loose money cos its like the mouth of a jug , pouring all money away.

There feel better for that !

[celeste]

Its Lee On Solent on the south coast so i recognise all your hubbys photo's.:) I spent many a happy hour at southsea as a child. Canoe lake was another favourite.

The plane is very close & low because it lands just to left of the picture & just behind my house.

[mirry]

omg just down the road from me , im in fareham.

Thats why i recognised it !!!

lol

Can't take credit for this but it is pretty cool!

[EmilyJane]

Hi I paint in watercolour, I paint peoples 'escape' places. Like the picture in your mind that you go to for escape or relaxation. I would like to show one but it's too big and I don't know how to reduce the size of it to fit the size of digi pics that can be downloaded here. Any help would be appreciated as I am a technophobe.
Thanks
Emi

[Dave777]

Hi Guys, thought I'd add this photo to our collection.
Not taken by me unfortunately.

[PaganGothicAngel]

Okay, so not sure if this is the right place but I just thought I'd share this pic with you all. Recently done in Photoshop with my graphics tablet. I was messing around and this came out of it lol.
What do you guys think of the randomness? :yesyes:

[Dave777]

Good to see you here PGA ! :yesyes: loved your artwork.
Hope to see more from you soon

Dave:hugs:

[Cathy V]

Hi angel, i think its really good! my son andy is a fantasy artist and has regular spots in the fantasy and digital art mag called Imagine FX. Your work reminds me of some of the artists in the mag...well done.

Cathy xxx :)

[PaganGothicAngel]

Okay, so here's another one that took me a little longer than the Faey... Like over 20 hours in Photoshop designing stencils and things...
Well what do you think any comments welcome.

http://laura-li-artist.deviantart.com/art/Glowing-Mermaid-and-Bubbles-92001361

Also thanks for the two comments on my other picture :) Although I don't think I'm quite good enough for Imagine FX just yet ;)

[JoT]

I play a virtual world game called Second Life - http://secondlife.com/. It is a free game and an amazing place for those of us with vivid imaginations, perfect for agoraphobics because you can socialise with others and not feel pressured. Everything in this game is created by the players.

I love to take photographs in the game and tweak them in this photo enhancing programme - http://www.photoscape.org/ps/main/index.php (free download).

This is one of my favourite pics (dunno how to embed it into here, sorry)

Hope you like :)

[PaganGothicAngel]

That's really good JoT, I'm not a pink girl myself but I like it ;)
And don't worry, I don't know how to embed images in here either lol :P

[Cathy V]

PGA i like your work so much, and we all have to start somewhere. Keep going coz you have tremendous talent and ppl dont realise how much hard work goes into this art. Its really good..i love the bubbles!

Im so hopless with links sorry, but my sons website is:

Best wishes
Cathy xxx :)

[PaganGothicAngel]

Wow Cathy your son is an amazing artist, no wonder he's in Imagine FX! I went on his DeviantArt account and he really is good.
Here's the link to his DA page for everyone else who wants to look

Hi everyone...:)

Nice to see this kind of thread is still running.

Hey lindadiana...those newborns are realistically weird! Please return and tell us more. :ohmy:

Not one of mine but quite striking. Comes from a famous Italian Cemetary.:noangel:

If you don't know how to add pics to your posts...

First - use Go Advanced mode...

1: look for the little paperclip symbol (next to the smiley logo)
2: click on the downward pointing arrow
3: click on manage attachments
4: up comes the manage attachments window.
5: click on BROWSE beneath "upload file from your computer"
6: find your image and click on upload
7: your image should now be listed when you return to the paperclip symbol
8: compose your post and click on the name of your image after placing your cursor where you want it to go in your message. Preview your post...
9: Voila! (I hope)
10: Your a Star :yesyes:

I hope this all makes sense. I always fancied myself as a teacher ( or was it a T-Shirt?).:unsure:

All the best:D

[Piglet]

Thank you Allan for that it made me want to give it a go - so I did!!! :D

Hi Piglet:)
