windcatcher 0 #8 March 14, 2005 Karen, I normally do not care too much for abstract art, unless it's really impressive...this painting of yours rocks!!! edit to add: I especially like the fact that nobody other than a skydiver might venture to guess those were 2 people falling in freefall together, nice job, I also like the different colors/patterns you used.

karenmeal 0 #15 March 14, 2005 Its watercolor and ink. I'm thinking about making a skydiving series of this type of style.. having a swooper coming through with the sky swirling behind her (of course) in a van-gogh-esque style.

flyangel2 2 #17 March 14, 2005 Oh I understand that it's watercolor and ink. I was just thinking if it could be done in a stainglass it would look very cool.May your trails be crooked, winding, lonesome, dangerous, leading to the most amazing view.

karenmeal 0 #18 March 14, 2005 I was responding to the "is it acrylic" question. It would look awesome as stained glass though! I would love to learn to do that someday. I think making glass art would be awesome.. probably require a significant investment upfront though.. maybe someday.

flyangel2 2 #19 March 14, 2005 Maybe there is someone that already does stainglass that you could work with to make your art into stainglass.
