FANTASTIC!!!!!!

This is very, very cool!! GL to you author! Instant fav!

I'm shocked! I didn't know you paint?

Please do more! I love this!

I must ask, what type of medium did you use? It looks almost like black velvet canvas.

believe it or not it is just black paper...a heavy construction paper almost like a thin mat board that I had in the house....and then I used acrylic paint in the brighter colors and it just looked good I thought against the black. Thank you for the compliments...you are so kind! I Love to draw and paint...it is the photography thing and the photoshop that are new to me!

This is why this site freaking ROCKS!!!! Its awesome to see work of this caliber but to see Jaws get all fired up is even greater still! Author I often work from black on canvas and once again .......you have done a fantastic job here. I to hope to see much more of your hand rendered work.
