Linda is an extra ordinary talent,always a pleasure to view her art work.The emergence of light and the brilliant light effects shown in the portrait is mind boggling.So very neat in her work and perfection in detailing.Always the best.

Comment from Charlena


I haven't seen you for a while so was looking through some of your older works and I still am so utterly amazed at how absolutely flawlessly rendered your drawings are. To me they are so magical, like what you draw could come to life. This is no less I am humbled by our work

    Dearest Charlena,
    May my response to your review be more than just a mere answering. May I express to you the gratitude I feel when I read appreciation of my work, such as yours. I want my art to be magical. Drawn with the utmost of all that my soul can give. This is a passion. Sometimes I feel as though I will never draw another picture, but then I begin to imagine ideas, and the process begins all over again. Thank you for your inspiration. A new one is in the works.
    All My Love,
    Linda

    I can't wait to see , have you ever sold your drawings in a book form and if so what would you charge. I have never seen and felt what I do in your drawings, they are more than magical. :)

    Dearest Charlena,
    I am so lost as to how to even begin a venture of this nature. Your admiration of my work is so exciting. I will pray and see what happens. Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to put together a book. Wow!
    Lots of love,
    Linda

Linda I am sorry for giving you a 'five' on this work. As a 'standard member' I can't give 6's. I am continually floored by the depth of your emotion and detail in your work. ...Its just fantastic! It deserves a '10'.

You are the number 1 artist on this site.

Thanks for sharing!

    Jim,
    again, I will pour upon your head the ointment of gratitude for expressing such a wonderful review. Your work on you woodcarving is intricate, as my work with the pencil is. You know how exact everything must be. Without presicion, there is no true art. Dedication to the piece is of the utmost importance. Thank you for your wonderful praise.

Comment from Mike Roberts


This is drawing at it's finest. It certainly has a beautiful classic style. The drawing is well detailed and shaded. You have an unquestionable talent. Very professional. Impressive.

    Dear Mike,
    I work diligently on my pieces, to make sure that I don't short/change my fellow artists. I value the world of art, and the gift that God has given each of us. I don't want to cheapen it by throwing together anything, and calling it art. I am so happy when the reviews that I get reflect the effort that I have put into my work, and the appreciation from you wonderful artists here at FAR. Thank you for your fantastic support.

Comment from ostrich


Very delicate and sensitive. I think this might have been the way men viewed women in the very distant past. We have to be a bit more useful nowadays. Thanks to all those womens liberationists.Mind you I am looking very reposed this afternoon of my chaise lounge having got a head cold. Feeling a bit delicate.

    Dear Rob,
    The expression that you see is seen through the soul of your own being. You must be very sensitive. A spiritual touch of love. Deep calling unto deep. Thank you for your wonderful review. I appreciate it more than I can express.

    Dearest Catey,
    I want to thank you for your wonderful review. I am so glad that you see the life of this woman. It has to shine in the eyes, and you have found that. I want my drawings to reflect life. Not just a blank stare, but true life. Something that is drawn up from the well spring of living water. Bless you,
    Linda

This is a stunning post here. I really like the colours through out. The detail is stunning too with the framing of the object in the bottom right. You really have got a talent. Thanks. Steve..

    Dear Steve,
    Thank you for your wonderful review. The detail is tedious, but well worth the effort, if the viewer appreciates what you've done.
