Oh, this is a work made with extreme sensibiliy, Carole Humphreys. Extreme sensibility. You remember me women writers of your country - like Virginia Woolf and Jane Austen. Congratulations

Thank you so much. Imagine that, being compared to Jane Austin and Virginia Woolf - you're the first to say this and I loved it

I love both writers.I love the old England. Sargent, american, painted one of his best masterpieces in Broadway, England: Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose, that remember me your last work with the children.

I love that painting by Sargent, in fact I've written a poem based upon that painting and submitted it to my other DA account - link: [link] - I was not happy with the poem, but my tutor liked it.

Oh, it was very exciting to read your poem after our conversation with so great coincidence! I am a poet, too ( see, if you want, [link] about my last book published in Portugal ) and your teacher is right: your "Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose" is a beautiful poem. Like the SargentΒ΄s paint. I love Sargent. I have here, before me, a copy of the "Lady Agnew" that I painted only for pleasure.
Oh, about the mistake around your age: I was kiding with you because I did read in your page something like "old". I am 63 and very happy with the things as they so. Congratulations for you drawings and your so delicates verses. You are a special woman. A fairy.

I did read in comments that you made to other people that you are a poet. I tried the link, but I couldn't find your book. I will have a look on google later
Thank you for your kind words; I can pretend to be a fairy, but I would need big wings to fly.

Oh, yes, there are informations about the book on google, altavista, etc. The tittle is " Trigal com Corvos" ( Wheat Field with Crows), and you see, in the cover, my self-portrait ( you can see it here, on deviant ) in the painting of Van Gogh.

Thanks. I'm noting that down. I will go and check that out.

Main thing is: this one plus last Minotaur and Mermaids are available for Mobile download. I don't know if that was your intention so I'm just pointing this out.

Hi
Yes, I deactivated the stuff that I didn't think would suit download to a mobile. I'll only rebel and deactive the better work if DA shrinks the images to a detrimental level. I made the decision that my work is online anyway and liable to get used and abused without my blessing. If I consent in this instance, it will be being used in a way I'm aware of and this also might make make the work less desirable to be ripped. I will see how things go.

Oh, and when I was checking that Mobil version without logging in I couldn't open Mermaids because of adult contest.

Oh no! You've rumbled my master plan ... but are my pictures explicit enough to get people jailed?
I will check you're gallery-shuffles out in a few day's time. I've got another 12 hour shift at work tomorrow and on Monday, I'll be back at uni.
Europe can't do the downloads for a cellphone yet ... so I'll only be able to spread my filthy art to mobile phones in certain nations at the moment.

Oh, it looks like I'm finishing with storing my important files to CDs to prevent them from being eaten if that virus of mine has some delayed reaction on the system.

I'm too lazy to make the suggestion to DA, but if you'd like to, or anyone else, feel free
Blurred circles on my mermaids' boobies ... Noooooooo! I'd rather paint naff seashell bras on them, rather than have that happen. Those are some weird double standards. As my friend Ravnen has said, the day they decide breasts are sexually explicit, is the day they'll have to blindfold babies breastfeeding ((or something like that)).
Glad you're free of the virus and you've saved your work OK.

Such a lovely 'mona lisa' type of smile. (not that she looks like mona of course) it is just a very enigmatic type of smile, perhaps a little melancholy.
As always beautiful details. I especially love the hair and cloth in this.
Thank you for sharing

Gilly is one of my favourite portraits, and now it's even more complete.
Favourite again.

Wow, the detail in this piece is amazing! It's beautiful.

Is it a blouse or a jacket? Either way the detail is lovely. You have done her pretty face justice. Even the leaves look like you have taken care with them. A most bodacious polished piece.

Awww... thank you so much. She has a dress on and is wearing it over her T-shirt. It was my dress and she didn't like it much. Hehehe, but I had the camera and she was posing for me. The photo is over twenty years old, so I expect Gilly has changed a lot
