Time for something a bit different

[oldmangrumpy]

Lula -

Day 11 and nearing the end of this project.

[lula]

Splendid

[oldmangrumpy]

Lula - thank you.

Day 12 and the final instalment of this Islamic pattern mandalas project, so back to 'things different' again.

[Pat625]

Beautiful! I really like it.

[oldmangrumpy]

Pat - thank you.

Now back to something a bit different - the last snow gum.

[dinasset]

Fascinating !

[oldmangrumpy]

Diego - thanks for commenting; for all non Aussies, snow gums (Eucalyptus pauciflora) are large trees, common in the alpine areas of Australia.

Continuing with things different - a flying saucer ( ) in mother of pearl of course

Tantra is a 'cartoon' character I created and have posted her previously in a different guise; she is a free spirit of the universe and changes her appearance sometimes in subtle ways but even dramatically at whim. Here she has returned from planet Grün having adopted certain local features

[dinasset]

Very good, OMG.

[level_0]

OMG, it's splendid.
I admire your work to draw the hair, eyes, lips, nose, in fact everything!bravo bravo bravo

[oldmangrumpy]

Diego and level_0 - thank you, I really appreciate your comments.

I was brought up in England in rather austere conditions just after WW2. My parents told me that after 'that war' there would be everlasting peace. Seventy years on and things still do not look like they promised me ( ) so I thought I would try to help with my two peace doves; well you have start somewhere.

[oldmangrumpy]

Oh dear, Tantra (post 808) has complained that I'm not giving her brother any Gimp Chat time; so here is her androgenous brother Tantrum ( ), another traveller in our broad universe.

[oldmangrumpy]

Abstract style mystery.

[Issabella]

Awesome jobs there, OMG. and I love your creation with peace doves. I wish you have started everlasting peace period for our world.

[leftyleo]

There is so much creativity here - it is awe inspiring.
I love to make things - but i often lack that creative 'spark' to set the ideas aflame (is that the right wording? ..lol)

[oldmangrumpy]

Issabella and leftyleo - thank you both very much for you comment.

Issabella because you liked those peace doves, they sent another message from their dovecote

Sketch portrait of another one of my favourite people - Ash Barty.

[oldmangrumpy]

Again something a bit different

My alien cartoon portrait friend Tantra has introduced me to an Australian indigenous friend of hers, Jedda the 'goanna girl'
