STRIPED (#83)


I'm really looking forward to reviewing all your various entries below and welcoming those of you new here! Thank you so much for playing along. I'll be sure to comment on everyone's pieces later Tuesday night when we can all see if there were any last minute additions too. Fun!:)

You know, sometimes one's image in mind just comes together quickly and perfectly, other times not. This one, however, worked out first try. Happy, happy. Hope you enjoy it too.

    Yes, horribly clashing to combine patterns, but hey, I had fun with it. If a girl, I doubt I'd ever wear horizontal stripes either. LOL. In fact, I wont as a guy either. Generally a bad idea. :)

    Such a gorgeous fashion drawing! Anything goes these days, so stripes and spots are just the ticket. Wish I had legs like hers!!

      Hi Twinkle, I tried to leave a comment on your flickr but as I don't have an account there it doesn't look like it would allow me to leave a comment, so am leaving one here.

      Haven't seen your 2nd piece but on the first one, let me just say, welcome to CT! So glad you joined us--this is very creative and busting full of energy aside from being large too! Than you thank you. It;s so great to have new styles and insights to our themes here. :)

    just managed to finish today. yay!

    good take on ct. I think it's not so bad, although I think the green stripes are a bit much. cute combo though.

    have a sweet day.

    I thought I left a comment when I added my link, but I guess I didn't! :) Anyway, thank you Michael for a good challenge! I saw this site mentioned in couple of blogs- Katie's, Janice's, Niina's, Alexandra's -I use to visit, so I thought it would be nice to participate. I like how you give us two weeks, one doesn't need to be so hasty!:) Nice to get to know some new awesome artists, too!
