@Pandapaws ... beautiful.  You've got a true talent for getting 'life' into eyes, looks like the piece could jump out of the screen.

@roddy ... phenomenal work.  Carving is such an amazing art to take a block and make

Great photos too everyone.

Dystopia

Thank you so much for the lovely compliments everyone. @WelshBlue thank you so much, sometimes I can get the eyes right sometimes I struggle. As for your Dystopia….. WOW it looks amazing 

WelshBlue

Thanks @Grinchy and @Pandapaws

pandapaws the more I look at the car, the more realistic it gets.  Really is a talent.

This piece is taking a photograph of myself and seeing what I could do in the terms of 'glass'

@WelshBlue that looks amazing, am I wrong in saying it looks like a camera lens too? Love the blue colours.

Lots and lots of beautiful creations and beautiful photos . Nice one . Lovely of people to share these successful items . You are all so truly talented in what you do . Nice one 👍 

WelshBlue

@Sandy_123 @Grinchy ... many thanks

@Pandapaws ... many thanks.  The beauty of abstract backgrounds, can empower the viewer to see what the creator doesn't    A lot of my pieces I used to put more hours into the background than I did 'the main event piece'

Inner Demons
(Made when the depression was at a high level ...)

Oh wow @welsh

marybottomley

I made this on Sunday 

Grinchy

Thats ace  @WelshBlue, very atmospheric!, and well done @marybottomley, looks a nice set

Pandapaws

@marybottomley well done, I love frozen too 

Pandapaws

@WelshBlue that’s amazing that you created that whilst your depression was really bad. I hope it helped you in some way as art can be good therapy. The flames to me look like mood swings, being hot headed etc. it’s a bit like going through the menopause 

Pandapaws

@WelshBlue sorry forgot to say I love the feather details on the wings 🪽 and the vampire 🧛‍♂️ as sometimes it just feels like someone has sucked the life out of you 

marybottomley

It’s actually a horse

Pandapaws

@marybottomley yes I can see there’s a horse too, I was on about the whole thing as it reminds me of the Disney film frozen

Out and about.

Grinchy

very nice!
Heres a lifesize alien bust, i made a few years ago, this was made of fibreglass and airbrushed in acrylics, the mould for this i bought from another collector, only made 2 copies from the mould, fibreglass is messy stinky stuff to work with

Pandapaws

@Grinchy that’s fantastic! All those details, must have taken you hours to do. When you say life size how big is it?
