Very nice ... I couldn't draw a straight line with a pencil and a ruler... ... That's why I love photography.

Would love to see that sketch above with color added.

Here is a link to a page with a colored pencil pic I did of a mandarin. There is a blue painting of some sea horses too. I am not really good at this stuff, but I did it for a class. Photoshop and Illustrator are much easier for me. Anyway, hope you like my fish pics!

Oh! and there are some cool seahorses I drew in Painter 9 on this page. Just mouse over the little pics on the bottom. Painter rocks! I did the giraffe and the dirt bikes in Painter also.

Both of you are great artists.

i8chicken, you are too modest. I think you are an excellant artist. Though, at first, I thought that pepper drawing was a little inappropriate for a sec, but then I saw the stems. Maybe I just have a weird mind.

Yikes! I had to go back and take a look at those peppers.... Just peppers as far as I can tell!

Thanks for the compliments on the pics, though. That's super nice.

I like to draw on the computer using a tablet, but it's harder for me to do "natural" drawing with a pencil and paper. "Control Z or Undo is so much easier than an eraser!

Anybody else draw their fish?
