Forbes girl Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Abby, on selling your first artwork!!! Something tells me it won't be your last sale. Is it one you showed us? They are all so wonderful! I can't wait to see the drawing in progress from the calendar. That is one of my favorite pics. That's why I loved the cross stitch June did from Nim's Premiere. You gals are SO talented!!!!! I envy talent like yours. You have been blessed. ~HUGS~ Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forbes girl Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Abby, I have been to the Louvre in Paris and the wonderful Art museums in Chicago and Washington D.C. and that finished drawing above looks like something I would have seen at any of those museums. My dear you ARE an artist and this will be your career. Make it happen!!! ~HUGS~ Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arwen Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 These drawings are really really good Abby, I think its the eyes once you have mastered that then they look so good. I find with cross stitch, once I get the eyes done then the rest falls in to place, a big plus is that the eyes follow you whilst you are working on the project. Well Done Abby Hugs June Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abby Posted August 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Thank you Kathy what you said made me very happy June I agree the eyes are the most important because they are the thing you look at first in any art thank you too for the kind words Abby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
irish Posted August 28, 2013 Report Share Posted August 28, 2013 Yes my dear....someday (and not in the very distant future) I see you as being rich and famous!!!! And guess what guys? Abby has so generously expressed a desire to give GALS a picture of Gerry for next years auction ... now you know who'll be bidding on that one don't you! Abby, as soon as I can pay off these last bills I have on this summer's house projects I will work out the arrangements with you to get it mailed to me for framing.... I'm also planning on saving up enough money to entice you to draw a picture of my two grandsons. That is IF you're not too famous by the time I get around to it and your fee is waaaaaayyyyy above me...lol. hugs, Sue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abby Posted August 29, 2013 Author Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 Hi Sue You and other gals have been so kind too me since I've been here that your like a second family About you wanting a portrait of your grandsons, I would never other price people who have been so kind to me, don't think I would charge you that much either I would always make exceptions for you gals and I do have a long way to go till I ever get to that stage in my art, Sue If you are ever interested just email me I'll always be here in 2 to 10 years... lol Abby Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forbes girl Posted August 29, 2013 Report Share Posted August 29, 2013 You touch me deeply, Abby. It is easy to be nice to someone as sweet as you are. You are so humble about your art, which is magnificent. I think you are better than you realize because it comes so easily to you. We, who can only draw stick people, are mesmerized by what you can put on paper. You are so talented! ~HUGS~ Kathy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
