There were lots of the children's art work, made at home and school, that we happily put on the wall.<br />Then we spent time together sitting in front of the iMac and looked through the big collection of digital images that <a href="//en.wahooart.com/" rel="nofollow">Wahooart</a> had for their customers to select from and have printed as canvas prints. The kids together chose this painting for their room, <a href="//EN.WahooArt.com/A55A04/w.nsf/OPRA/BRUE-8LHRV2" rel="nofollow">Ivan Horse</a> by Edmund Dulac, that we ordered online to have delivered to our new house.<br />scott davidsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07185110800919351863noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4734161902488517200.post-64889926400683741782012-07-08T22:55:52.444+01:002012-07-08T22:55:52.444+01:00Thank you Sherry.English countryside is beautiful ...Thank you Sherry.English countryside is beautiful and yes, I would love to live here,too.Artihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05820874950763419111noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4734161902488517200.post-87690556756618734132012-07-06T10:23:10.260+01:002012-07-06T10:23:10.260+01:00I think this is beautiful, Arti.

In pastels, it might help to begin with 3 shades of the same color of hard pastels (nupastels are good) and do a few monochromatic drawings. That way you will gain control and understanding very quickly. Also, "Pastels" by Daniel Greene is a great reference. You may find it at your local library.Urmi Battuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09473351324396075953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4734161902488517200.post-84941082476885139682012-07-06T02:56:03.518+01:002012-07-06T02:56:03.518+01:00Pish posh, lighter?
