I do (I think:)) want to try and include them more in my own work even if just adding a suggestion of something. Going for the 'non-background' is good for me I think:)<BR/><BR/>I'd be more than happy for you to include my blog on your list, thank you:) I look forward to following your links when they are up as I love to see what other artists are doing with coloured pencil.Laurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17965272647048231298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31268332.post-14449568476394456412008-05-12T18:00:00.000+01:002008-05-12T18:00:00.000+01:00Hi Laura, Thank you for leaving such a lovely comm...Hi Laura, Thank you for leaving such a lovely comment on my blog. Of course I had to check out your work...Wow! Your work is fantastic! Your animals have such a quality of 'life'. Your work comes across fresh, with a sense of lightness.<BR/><BR/> I love that you don't use a background. It suits your style well. Not having a busy background does focus our attention on the character and individual beauty of the animal. <BR/><BR/>Having said that, this background is quite lovely. I think of it as a non-background as it is as you said, "simple and uncomplicated". I agree. Wonderful!<BR/><BR/>I am glad to have found your work Laura. I am putting together a list of pencil artists to put on my blog. May I include your blog address? Thanks for considering my request.Teresa Mallenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17978596700598817430noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31268332.post-88754051023654003352008-05-02T06:55:00.000+01:002008-05-02T06:55:00.000+01:00Hey Laura, like you I am never too sure about back...Hey Laura, like you I am never too sure about backgrounds,I think it is a choice you make in a split second to do or not.....this drawing looks great with it though.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
