ATTENTION ARTISTS and ART LOVERS

[Carrie Todd]

I'm impressed with how creative all of your works are. I typically do 2-D work the old fashioned way (oil, chalk, charcoal, etc). Sadly, I'm just now coming up to present time technologically, so I'll have to share at a later time. It's good to know that the arts will go on.

But Usaine Bolt is a cheater, tell me what you want.
In 2000 everyone believed that Marion Jones is a super-human and now she's in prison.

If Jamaica would have the same Anti-Doping controls as other countries no gold medal would have gone to Jamaica.

Look what happened to Greece and Bulgaria, and even to the USA.

Sorry for that.


But your picture looks nice.

No problem.

It is quite understandable given the times that he has posted that many would think that he is taking drugs. Personally, I think his feats are quite phenomenal, but I don't really take Track and Field that seriously as I have lost faith in the Anti-Doping Programs controlled by the governing bodies.

That said, I still it would be prudent to establish his guilt through evidence first before distributing accusations. Bolt is worshiped like a God here, I do hope for his sake and the entire nation that he is clean.

But we shall see what we shall see.

You're right Andre.


But everyone involved in track and field says that.
The 4th of the Olympic Iron Man said: "the 100m competition was a big hoax!"

Look at Lance Armstrong,
he never got caught in the act but everyone knows that he cheated.
And after he announced his comeback for the next Tour de France,
all newspapers headlined: "An EPOchal regress in the battle against Doping!"

[Jon Carling]

is it alright to use these pics on our desktops and so on??? if so this would be a cool place to get original art..

My avatar is a stippling that I did of some white tigers out of a magazine. I like stippling because you can make a picture that looks like a black and white photo without photoshop. I prefer the old fashioned method. Here's a pencil sketch of what I think I will look like when I'm older. I googled some nerd pictures and came across this one and I drew it.

A great idea - how do you upload pictures here, please?

I am new to this forum and site. Thank you for the opportunity, and I just happen to be an artist: www.davidpavlak.net Here is one of my oils, showing Bush, Cheney, Falwell, Robertson, and Coulter, not very flatteringly. Hope you like it.

Well, my favorite is Photoshop, but I practically use the majority of the graphics and web design programs such as Illustrator, InDesign, QuarkXPress, CorelDRAW, Freehand, Dreamweaver, Flash and Visual Web.

Hi there, the image below was created randomly with Chaoscope - free rendering software.

I have called it "Wizard". It was created by altering alide bars to mould a cloud of colour and pixels. When i had finished i thought it looked like a glass but closer inpsection revealed a bearded figure stood inside!

I have placed a few more images in my gallery which show strange humanoid figures, faces and also - what looks like a grey wearing a robe! All created randomley using this free software. Enjoy.

Dont look at the other images as they have uploaded poorly. Does anyone know how to upload a better result?

ok that took me a while to figure out, how to put an image on here. whew!

i am in love with macro photography, or looking into the wonders of the small worlds. this is a shot that named itself. it is called City of Gold. a bit of macro and bokeh and some quantum mojo magic. my avatar is also one of my favorite shots.

just as a side note, i found the group before i found the thread. hehe.
