These are beautiful, Crystal! The first paintings make me think of The Shire and elves (Lord of the Rings, and all that). But they really are breathtaking!

Nice paintings. I love to look at your work. I check daily to see if you posted a new painting and enjoy the ones you have posted.

All of your work is great but the unicorn is amazing! You can watch him think!

Thank you Larsson @ Metalwing, * The Unicorn is for sale as well * I like the unicorn too, I don't often paint animals, not really my thing, and a horse (okay, unicorn) ain't particularly easy.

Can't continu with the windmill painting, can't rest my arm anywhere no more, so it has to dry first. Got this far: Not happy with the water though, first time ever I seemed to have scr*wed that up :( But I'll probably work it out, I always do, one way or another Not sure if you have ever watched Bob Ross on PBS before or not. He would use a long brush laid across the easel to steady (rest) his hand on. I have used dowel rods, yard sticks and even wooden spoons for the same reason. It's difficult to get into the mood sometimes for me and I find if I stop because something won't work, the painting or drawing never turns out as I saw it to begin with.

Thank you all! PhD, you may wanna put your glasses on again, I got a new painting. ALMOST done, needs a bit more work. It's for my daughter, she requested this, quite a challenge, I'm not so into animals/horses, but I must say I'm proud of myself, so far! Hope I'm not gonna bugger it up when I do the finishing touches! (The bridle needs more work amongst other things)
