What does this have to do with big game hunting?

Jarrod,

Just asking, or do you know this lady?

I'm not a big fan of the colour pencil, if've done a little in it myself...

...with the right paper you can get some life into the drawing, but you run the risk of pretty dull pictures. I like to stick to just black pencil.

Watercolours can give that "life" to a painting, but in the one example on the site, the proportions of the people seem a bit odd, especially the person on the left. It also seems as if the artist hasn't quite mastered the freedom that watercolours offer (I've tried, without any formal education, and I struggled in the same way; it is too easy to "draw" with watercolours, instead of paint, and you lose the effect).

I love the jelly fish photograph, the others don't stick out.

Having abandoned the art (or put it on hold indefinitely), I do a lot more photography, and truly, only a few in a hundred shots are worth a second look, and maybe only one or even less, is worth framing. So many things determine the quality of a picture, that it is tough to make winners.

(Disclaimer: I'm not a trained artist, nor a trained photographer; just offering my opinion)

I don't personally know her. Same as I know most of you here online only.

She looks a little old for me. If I'm going to be chasing some strange I would chase a hottie and not waste my time. She might have a nice personality but you can't tell from a website.

Is this the new Accurate Reloading web dating service?

I was pretty underwhelmed by her work as well. Next!

If you ask me, Fjold's avatar/avi clip is more appealing.
