5. chelydra wrote: Funny what pix catch on and which ones are mostly ignored... If ThinkDraw caught fire, this might be the one I'd try hardest to save from the flames while the wildly popular Brewster septuplets burn. |
6. chelydra wrote: Maybe you need to be familiar with the statue to see it is in my rendering. Otherwise is it just a soups of catnoses and pigeyes? |
7. chelydra wrote: ...another two or three days pass, and still only four people seem to have noticed this. Something VERY strange occurred last night... |
8. chelydra wrote: ....five did a new picture that I thought looked quite interesting, but seemed to be one of those that hover between reality and abstraction without looking like anything in particular (which five does a lot of and very well).... |
9. chelydra wrote: ...I saw that the title was Victory in the 20th Century, so I thought maybe the chaotic forms related to bombed cities or something... Just because it was such an unusual picture, I tried the playback... |

11. chelydra wrote: ...so if I couldn't see what she was doing ntil about 5 minutes of careful studying and wondering, and I'd just drawn the damn thing (as well as the original in the Louvre being my favorite work of art in any category)... |
12. chelydra wrote: ... I guess I shouldn't be quite so miffed about almost no one taking note of this one. Maybe I'll try a couple more versions out of sheer cussedness. |

14. hjjr wrote: like you, Nike of Samothrace is one of my all-time favorites and i had destroyed several earlier attempts until i decided to put her en plein air... i did not mean to imply it deserved more votes... and i was thrilled that you commented |
