It would appear that you take great pleasure in your drawing activity. You do produce some stunning art. Would it take away some of the pleasure if you felt that you had to produce on demand? Why not introduce some drawings into your blog that you already maintain, which I find quite interesting. See what reaction you get there from comments. You can always take it further if and when you want to. Oh! and you certainly don't need to go to art college (unless it's to teach) from what I see.

Thank you sooo much! *blush* You do have a very valid point there, as I have wondered myself if I would stop enjoying it as I do have to be in the frame of mind to do these and think that I might get frustrated if I had to produce art on demand? Plus I know at the moment I wont be able to start anything serious as I might be having an op on my hands (LOL) so would be out of action for a good few months! Perhaps I might make a separate page on my blog re my artwork tho, that is a great idea! Once again thank you for your encouragement you are a sweetie x

Sam, anything I say must, absolutely must, be taken with a grain of salt, as I know nothing about art ....... but in your last picture I see a lot more surety than with the birds, although the flying budgie had it as well. Maybe it is simply the contrast of black and white that you have given them, especially this last one, I don't know ..... but they are great, each and every one.

As usual you are quite right and the reason for that is as you noticed - the dramatic colour of using pen makes an illustration very striking. With the budgies ones I wanted them to look "soft" or almost pastel/watermark Oh and the budgie in flight pic is a tattoo design for me so had to be darker in places than others

maybe you could offer your servies to Paperchase as they seem to think that budgies are pink on their designs... and they have no mugs at the branch I am near :-(

Well have had a rush of blood to the head and produced my own blog in addition to our Budgieopolis website called Samwises Sketches Gallery so any future illustrations shall be posted here. "What have I done"? I ask myself!

They are all soooo good Sam, you just do not realise howe clever or artistic you are, just listen to what everyone says on here about your drawings.

mizloco - should the forum want me to design anything for them then I would be happy to do so! ffiscool - I would love one of those budgie mugs too, dont know if they do them in our paperchase, I did ook online but they didn't show them (unless I was looking in the wrong place) Well seems like I should bow to the forum's expertise then Shirls! We shall see what develops from here
