Hey gang, I'm new to posting and I'm starting this group on the arts. If I figure it out I'll post some watercolors, pastels, and photography. If you enjoy fine art and fine crafts, please feel free to post as well. I saw one group by kymillion, but she has deactivated her account so I'm starting this one. Now I have to figure out how to post a picture.

    Thanks anels449, I've painted this scene or one similar several times. There are several things I like about it and it is still a challenge to me, Joe

    95 % is watercolor then I add a little acrylic to help with the ocean spray, so it is officially water media.

    Wow....I respect people who can draw like that. I Wish I could. You're lucky if you get stick men with me. lol.

    It takes a skilled and creative person to come up with drawings and paintings. Love stuff like that.

    I love the shot, I would like to see it converted to Black and White. I still shoot an old hasselblad with b&w film, some habits just won't die.

    I haven't done any art in quite some time, but I've done mostly graphite pencil and pen and ink stuff:

    But stupid photobucket isn't wanting to post anything for me...

    Love this pic!

    Must keep checking in on this topic. Amazing what people can do with photography and drawings. Fascinating.
