Wow, I came in to see if there were any folks into sewing and ran across your art thread and had to take a look! You are very talented! It may be a weird question, but I had to wonder the story behind this guy. Like who he "might" have been, or where from, and when? I did think of a Fisherman maybe? I love the colors you used. I'm sure you can tell I'm not very smart about art, but I just know what I like ;) PS the only thing I've done so far you might call creative is put together a corner desk, a larger cabinet, and that's it until I get into my sewing "creations" that I will share ;) even if they don't turn out :sneaky: Then I'll have something to show my progress, hopefully, (y)

Hi Denise!
About my new painting: I used to paint old ranchers, Indians, cowboys; things of the "old West", but now i'm painting and doing bronze sculptures of gods and Angels, as this is my passion!
This is a close-up of an angelic entity on an Earthly mountaintop. (I will show the whole picture so you can see the background -next post)
Gods and Angels of the Heavens are not like humans, so he has no background of a fisherman or any other Earthly figure.
He has (in my mind) lived on many worlds and billions of lifetimes.

Not only me, but many on the forum would love to see your sewing and anything you've created! It's so important to keep expressing yourself!
Let's see what you've been doing! Thanks!
 
@Gaer as usual your work is gorgeous as well as others who have shared their work.
It seems the only way I can do anything artistic is to copy things I've seen on the internet. It just isn't satisfying to me as if it came from my own mind.
I envy your ability to do that.
Recently my sister in law gave me a gnome to paint. She said it had to be well over 80 years old. I tried to use the colors that were closest to the original. I must have done the face at least 3 times. I couldn't get the eyes.
A lot of the detail was washed away from years out in the garden but I tried.

That's WONDERFUL!!!! So glad you put it on here!
 
This is a nice thread for you to start Gaer.

I had fun making these two bags. If anyone has scraps, these are 'frankenbags' on Pinterest. I didn't follow her tutorial, I was inspired by the pictures.

LOVE those fabrics! I used to make pillows and handbags, potholders out of original 30's calico fabrics that I picked up at
antique stores! These are WONDERFUL!!!!
