Me , Myself & I from The WAY BEYOND,

very nice capture ..... her clouds look amazing ...did you get a shot of her drawing when she was finished as well ?

14 Oct 2007 9:55am

@Me , Myself & I: Unfortunately, I don't, but I'm going to ask her as soon as I can if I can get a scan of it or something.

Judy from Florida, United States

Great capture - terrific subject matter - I too, wonder if you saw her finished artwork.

@Judy: As I replied to Me, Myself, and I, I don't have the finished artwork, but I'm going to ask her as soon as possible.

Shuva Brata Deb from Hyderabad, India

Blue is definitely her fav. color. You can try to photo shop the drawing pad ---and that would be funny.

@Shuva Brata Deb: Haha, somehow, I feel like even if I did that, it wouldn't look as good as the finished product.

Hey Ebba/Eda/Ebony/Edwina/Eileen/Elaina,
Great capture of your friend on the blanket. You wouldn't happen to have a picture of her finished drawing, would you?

14 Oct 2007 3:27pm

@Stapczynski: Cute. As if you don't know what my name is already. And no, I don't have a picture of it.

Illuci from Netherlands

Very special kind of portrait, never seen something like this before! Great! Maybe the orang and yellow of the towel can be removed or diminished (you must see a piece of sand), it will make the picture according to my taste still better than it already is.

14 Oct 2007 6:31pm

@Illuci: I thought about editing in sand, but then I got a little bit lazy. We brought really large beach towels that could fit four people.

Illuci from Netherlands

No, I tried it by myself but I must admit that it won't improve the picture. Sorry.

14 Oct 2007 6:33pm

@Illuci: Haha, it's ok. :)

Illuci from Netherlands

Seems that you are blogging simultaneously with me, funny, aminus3 as a chatbox! :)

14 Oct 2007 6:34pm

@Illuci: Haha, this is rather odd, I must admit. :)
