That seems like an awful lot of work. If you're up to it, I'd be very appreciative. However, if you're not, I'd consider just buying one off of you. LOL

One that size would go for about 30 bucks. But i can make them bigger.

I hope you keep posting them. That fish is amazing. :) I also really like the knight (though, really, they're all wonderful).

LOL. Sounds like me and my writing. I try to get one book finished so I can offer it up for publishing when my Muse goes.. "Wait.. Wait.. let's do this!" Or, "Hey,I've got an idea for a book. Oh come on, we have to write this. You can do that story later."

Trust me, I know how it goes about getting sidetracked. :D:silly:

Thanks to a bit of encouragement, and some realization of slackin, I am going to put up a couple of my paintings that I am still working on. These are not finished, so you get to see the "working" stages of my body of work.

You know, that reminds me of a Mandala. They're always so beautiful. Your ability to create such fantastic artwork is very cool. I create with words, but we both have the ability to give people something special that will enjoy.

Keep it going.

Yes, I have been looking into mandalas recently. The creation of these is very time consuming and it is a meditative process for me, so spot on.

I had the honor of watching one being created. Okay, it wasn't in person, but they had a web camera set up to capture the creation.

Just watching from the planning of the design on a table, to the actual creation. It's fantastic to watch. I just wish I could find the archived video.

i've been present during the making of a mandala...i even managed to get pictures on my old phone of it...posted it somewhere in the forums ages ago(it's somewhere in the buddhism forums)...i've also made bows, forged a sword, done various other carvings, draw, write...etc...

artistic endeavors are great for meditation...it's just you and the work...
