22 June - house was cleaned out in a burgalery and our new Isuzu bakkie were stolen too.
2 July - a 2 nd burgalery. The rest of our earthly wealth were stolen
26 August -Hijacked in Balitto, South Africa. I escaped with my life. My Bmw, all my luggage, handbag ect were taken. Horrible
experience. By the grace of God I am alive. The talent that I received from our Heavenly Father nobody can put their hands on....so I will just pursue it. Thanks for your prayers.

What a sad series of events. Yes, you are lucky to be alive and have your artistic talent in tact.
God bless you.

I think the shade of red that you have is lovely.
I went back and looked at the lesson and Nolan put a bit of a darker shade of green at the top of the stem because the flower cast a small shadow across it.
Beautiful painting.
I actually still have this one all transferred onto canvas, just waiting for the inspiration to paint it.

Whoever thought a simple daisy could be so hard to draw. Because of the low contrasts I am battling to see whether the petals should be in front or behind!! :2funny: :2funny:

Hubby is home but rather alarmed me tonight asking whether I knew the number for the ambulance in case I find him unconscious. Can't leave him alone now in case his lungs collapse again, so shall have plenty if time to paint!

If you were battling with the drawing work, why didn't you redraw it using the grid method?

Lovely gerbera. Pretty shade of pink. Velvety petals. Beautiful background.
Center of the flower (whatever the technical name for it is - the pin cushiony thing) might look better with a bit of dark.
Otherwise, so lovely.

NOLAN my first attempt was on the grid, but my eyes just weren't able to follow all the lines!! :2funny: :2funny: :2funny: it's a DOB (date of birth) thing, you probably have a few years to go!! :2funny: :2funny: :help: I think if there is a next time it will have to be a trace job!

You will be surprised at how light the back of a petal can be. Some of them are almost white. If it bothers you adjust it, otherwise leave as is O0
