newby commented on Chappy's photo 'Woodland Bridge (INK)'

Hi Keith, what a lovely way to receive a Christmas card a beautiful view of the bridge your trees are very well done with the ivy trailing up the trunks I like the colours soft and almost sepia your trademark birds give the woodlands credence love...

Tell us a bit about yourself:: I have always loved drawing but with family and work put my pencils down many years ago 2008 was the year that I took the pencils up again Bob Ross was the insperation to take up painting and as I am now mobility challenged I needed a challenge I am in my sixties and always thought some day I would take up drawing again,so now I am drawing again and now painting. I like cooking,sewing,keeping my animal friends well and feeling good,gardening and after learning the computer a couple of years back I now love going on the computer and 'surfing' the net to find new sites like this one.
I have now been painting for one year I started on 28-1-2008,

Thanks a lot! You're very attentive and supportive, as always, and I really love your warmth and cordiality! I showed some pictures in a small exhibition two days ago and got some rather interesting comments, like ".. your works seem so dark and strange, maybe that's because you're a very dark, strange person and have something to hide.." I never thought I was so "dark" before... I didn't know what to say .. It's curious to observe different reactions, isn't it?
Hugs and best wishes!
Lana
