I love your photos and definitely your art work. Hope you post more. How long have you been painting? I've been going to a class for a year now, a great group of people are there, and I am slowly learning the techniques of watercolor, which I love. I've taught myself oils and acrylics, but could never get the hang of watercolor. I see we finally have some forums on drawing and painting under 'hobbies'. Do you paint from your photographs or or outdoors?

Thanks Nonni3. My only camera is a tiny Sony Cybershot, not even their best model. My hands when painting isn't even "the best model" :) but its the joy we get from just simply 'creating', isn't it? I love them all too. I wish my own batteries were as easy to charge these days as that little camera's batteries are!

Your boat painting is great and your photos are fantastic.....the yellow flower would be incredible to paint. It is gorgeous! The bridge onver the waterfall is breathtaking. I love them all.
