@chrisaakins I like the color play. The bright green with the red contrast definitely leads my eye to the dragon-fly. The rustic colors below are beautiful and varied. Thanks for posting.

@josegalue25 beautiful oriental style. The use of color leads the eye in a triangle. First the dragonfly, then the fish, then the berries and back to the dragonfly. Blues and grays set them off nicely.

@Mary-Toth - what a gorgeous image! I love the character clinging onto the net, but also your colour choices and detailed finish produced with these traditional mediums is so impressive. It’s polished, skilful and beautiful. Love it!

[Mary Toth]

@Lorna-H thank you!

@Chip-Valecek wouldn't it be better to have one extra pinned dedicated wip thread where everyone can post their stuff and ask for it instead of everyone creating his own thread?

If only it had been firefly... Could have made some fan art
