Comments

Hello Jenny. I have just left you a comment ( on the forum)as to how to let folk know how to find your gallery. Please may I also say if you post only one or two at a time you are more likely to be seen and people will leave their comments. Also if you post in quantity, you push of others very quickly. Sorry if all that sounds like criticism. Have just looked at your lovely gallery and you draw beautifully;, also your use of charcoal is just terrific. . I like this one very much. Where do you get your source material from... is it all in your head. ??

Dear Sylvia, I'm so sorry, this was my first time on painters online & as a complete tech'phobe I struggled. I didn't see the bit about not uploading a lot at once till I'd done it, I promise not to do that again. I tried to follow the instructions for invitation on the forum but failed miserably & gave up in the end, any tips on how to do that would be great. Thank you for the compliment though, am very new to charcoal & was pretty sure I wasn't doing it 'right' but had so much fun with it. My inspiration is always from something I've seen, in this case it was an item on TV about street children & the bond between this poor lad & the wee dog got me going. Regards Jenny

Dear Sylvia, Sorry, its me again. Have just spent 20 minutes trying to find my way about the forum & find the comment you left me but have failed miserably. I have decided that life is just toooooo short to work out how to work the forum Regards Jenny

Sylvia what an absolutely FABULOUS drawing. I just feel like getting the brushes out and painting it right now! Love it.

Dear jenny. Someone has muddled you up with me! Lo L. I wasn't telling you off honest , just you get more comments if posted in smaller amounts Yes life is too short you are right. I will just have to keep a close eye on the gallery for your stuff. . Or ask one of the technophobes on the forum... Mel is always happy to help and spells it out for folk like me. S .

You are right Sylvia, I am sorry Jenny. All your drawings are brilliant and I hope you don't mind I have started an oil painting "Inspired" by this one. By the way Slyvia is right re comments too - and you deserve all the recognition posting one at a time will bring. Sorry again for getting your name wrong

Dear Stephen. Thank you for the compliment - I hope the painting goes well, do let me see it when finished. Jenny

Thanks for your comment on my work. I've just been over your gallery because your name was new to me. You've got some great stuff yourself. You might be new to charcoal but you've developed a good style. Keep going and keep evolving and above all enjoy it.
