Beautiful and soft. Great work as always and by the way, the pearl is a nice addition to this piece. The shine is just perfect.

I received word today that Tess died on October 21, 2010. The world lost a lovely person when she decided to leave it. I knew her beloved dog, Shadow, was getting old and had some very serious illnesses. I suspect when Shadow died Tess had nothing to keep her going. I can't imagine how Tess was able to cope with the horrors of Meniere's disease for as long as she did. I'll miss you Tess. I feel so lucky to have known you a little.
I have put all the drawings that Tess posted here. If you take the time to really look at them you will find such incredible detail. They tell you so much about the intelligent, funny, caring person Tess was. (Uploaded by grace)

For Grace, whose letters of comfort and concern have helped me through many a difficult day. Thank you dear friend.
The poem (for those with not so good eyes) : I am dead, one says. No, you’re not, the other says. And he sits next to one, explains what they ARE, embraces one, hugs one, caresses one, shakes one, pushes one, falls down with one. And then they try to get up, panting, screaming – it hurts. Because nothing is as complicated as being undead. is written by Toon Tellegen and, loosely, translated from Dutch. Watercolour, pencils, ink and, I confess, a bit of digital enhancement (flipping scanner). Please zoom once for full view. I also want to thank all those who have wished me well in comments on my drawings/the wonderful drawing Grace made for me. Your kind words mean a lot to me. (Uploaded by Igiveup)

Another Toon Tellegen poem...
If I were a flower would I bloom? Or would I be an exceptional flower, an inconceivable flower, a flower incapable of choice whether to bloom or not, a flower that leans over the vase's rim to estimate the depth of its abyss? And if I were a flower, would I know when to wilt? Watercolours, pencils and ink again. (Uploaded by Igiveup)

Its amazing how you get the words perfectly spaced. I would get half a line from the end, run out of room, get frustrated and throw the whole thing away. I like how you muted the colours with the tan overall shade but the detail in the plant is lovely.

You have a lovely, romantic and thoughtful style. I see a bit of Beatrix Potter and a bit of Sara Midda in your work ... two of my favs, actually!

For Grace and the 5 dogs who are staying with her this week :)
1. The basics Feng Shui means Wind and Water. The latter is related to the watering of plants, hydrants, trees and such in order to mark your territory. As for the wind bit... well, we'd better not discuss that in detail, but it is also an essential component of the canine condition and as such shouldn´t be suppressed. Both wind and water are means to ensure your presence is noticed. 2. The 5 elements Are Ball, Bowl, Bone, Stick and Cookies (not necessarily in that order). Note that these are more concrete than the 5 human elements and therefore make much more sense. These elements should always be present in your life; if they aren´t make yourself heard (you could try the wind-strategy). 3. Locus Always make sure you´re located in a place where humans can´t ignore you, preferably at their feet. The kitchen is an excellent location. When humans trip over you, your status will be elevated and chances increase that you´ll be given attention. Or food. Or both. 4. Energy Make sure you get enough of both Ch'i-s : Yin and Yang. Yin means sleeping, a lot. Don't be afraid to express yourself by snoring, loudly. Yang stands for activity, humans don't always understand your need for running, fetching balls and sticks; educate them. 5. Compass Of the 8 parts of your compass, concentrate on the fulfillment part and make sure your bowl is there (so that it will always be fully filled). Ignore the other 7 parts, they only complicate your existence. (Uploaded by Igiveup)

He's 90 today.
The quote is his, he was not referring to himself but to all South Africans who fought for their liberation. I had this tucked away in a digital drawer to be finished and now I finally have. I'm not entirely happy with it, but I'm afraid it's the best I can do at the moment. This is probably my last digital piece. I have too much trouble focussing on a computerscreen and can't work on it for more than 10 minutes at the time. I never was any good at speedpainting, but now it takes me weeks rather than days to complete a drawing. So, I'm going back to good old traditional media when I can find inspiration, and provided my scanner behaves I will upload here in case I manage to produce something worth looking at. I'm sorry about my absence and lack of comments. Please know that I enjoy viewing the wonderful art that is produced here immensely, it brightens up my day. Thank you. (Uploaded by Igiveup)

oh my, givey! This just shines with your own glorious achievement! As always, your beautifully done, enhancing details are exquisite, and in his shirt, especially!
Thank you for bringing your art to us once again. It's a gift you have and and a gift you've brought! I am so happy to know that you are viewing and enjoying the work here...so many new members, aren't there (!)...and bringing their wonderful art! I hope you continue to enjoy and can let us know how you are when you are up to it. I will look at this often and think of you, too...and let the true beauty of the piece sink in when I also need to find inner peace and can reflect on the human spirit! Sending lots of hugs and sunshine your way, Tess, XOXO, Linda :D
