Not to pass up the opportunity to be in league with many of "the masters" I accepted an offer to imbibe absinthe the other night. Tasty. OOo! Now I'm a REAL artist! lol

Wow, Katarina, that is quite a powerful piece.

What, may I ask, was the inspiration for it?

Keep up the good work, lass.

I had the desire to create some stuff with pen, and each picture in a square/rectangle to create the framing effect, and I had written the beginning of a short story that was much like Dante's Inferno... And I just felt like illustrating a part of it. I think it was basically that the girl killed herself while her love was dying, and because god frowned upon that, she was forced to be dragged across the river styx. But then she jumps out and starts a journey with a fellow escapee, to try and reunite with him, despite god frowning upon such an act. I never finished the story though.. but oh well. I like the picture. :unsure:

And Thankee. B)

Back in the my younger days, I used to draw all the time, almost exclusively in pencil or pen and ink, although I sculpted a few items... time just doesn't seem to allow for it much any more... however, you are a great artist, as well as story teller, Katarina! Keep it up! And Nige, you know I've always admired your work... good to go, mates!!

Thankee. :unsure:

I'm actually working on a short comic with a pirate character, though she's in another world, so there's lots o' fantasy stuff. (she has cat ears and a flying furry companion) I have the basis of the story written out but I still have to decide on whether to do the actual comic on the computer, or with pencil and pen...

Awesome, Katarina! Um, could we persuade you to post some of the comic, when you finish it? It sounds great!

Sure! :unsure: Basically it starts with her in a small holding cell, due to a misunderstanding with her companion in a bar the night before. She ends up escaping and trying to make her way back to her ship, except that in the daylight she can't quite find her bearings, and she is also starving. Heheh. She then ends up running into a boy who was trying to pick her pocket and he ends up just tagging along and being annoying and keeps giving away her position to the local authorities who she escaped from. It's a rather short story that's really an introduction to greater adventures.

Thanks fer the compliments, all.

Black Deacon, I am intrigued by the photo of the cowboy hat, eerily suspended in the air. Tell us the story....

I have heard talk of "the vanishing cowboy" in this day and age, but....

I be somethin' of an artist. I jes' don' have a SCANNER. Mos'ly I do photo manipulations now 'cause o' that purpose. I have a DeviantArt account. Nothin's in it currently 'cause I'm lazy an' a little bit stupid. Ye can find me account here.

I'm also doing a lot of research on coat-of-arms for different families, particularly Irish ones, an' I'm in the midst of makin' a Pyrate family crest for all ye to share. B) With credit do yer dear sweet Kate, of course.

A fine piece of work lass. Fine indeed. Perhaps you'd take a commission? Since we both be in CT. maybe we could chat and come up with a deal. Pax?

Nice work, William Red Wake! Very nice work indeed. What medium are you using?

Dreamie, you just get better all the time. Who is this Don Karnage you speak of? I am unfamiliar with these "Sky Pirates" and would be interested in checking them out.

(btw, I need to get with you on that project we were discussing.)

Capt. Scurvy Dog, I think I recognize the person in the picture.....Saw him just a few days ago.

Now walk the plank, ye buncha upstarts!
