    I have a suggestion for your next painting. How about a landscape as it might be on the red planet Mars. Let you imagination run wild. DR

    Denee, My idea is to go western if you want to change but do it because you want to .I find your paintings are just great now .I love the water and ocean ones and you do fabulous work .
    Western painting are all the in now .I saw the wolf and its great but horses and western hats, boots and spurs horses and junk like that you know .I'm not being much help .

    No beleive it or not, my mind has gone blank with ideas. Ive dismissed all the other "pics" in my head and have run empty! LOL Thats the reason I started this contest.

    Denee there are a few melted candles on a table in the apartment I am in at the moment. They reminded me of this contest. I had an idea for a painting where the streams of melted candle would form another image of something, I don't know what. Here is a bad quality photo to illustrate:

    [​IMG]

    See the mini streams of melted candle? The could be used to form an image if long enough. They could ever stream onto another image, like a painting left resting against a table where the candles are burning. The streams could 'paint' something secondary onto the painting.

    I wish I could paint :( Hope this helps you!

    I dont know why my link of the blog wasnt working. Im still there and havent been deleted...strange! I posted the link for myspace site itself. Once it loads, to the right of the page, youll see all my blogs. Just visit the one that says "And the winner is......."

    I think my blog link doesnt work anymore because Ive had more hits to my blog then to my site. I was giving out a direct link to bypass the site. It goes against myspace rules, I guess. So youll have to go through my site to get to it.

    If you cant, Ill repost the blog here.
