    Rosa, you well deserve the praise that you have received for your art work. I wasn't with the GC crowd when you first introduced them to everyone, but I'm so glad to have had the opportunity to discover them now. Such a wonderful talent....

    thanks strawman i started my water colours 2 years ago, it was dag a member that got me into water colours and i enjoy doing them especially the pet portraits must get back into it some day, i went on an oil painting course last year and showed them my water colours and the oil painting artists couldnt get away with water colours and thought i did a great job with these paints.

    Rosa, your particular enjoyment of painting peoples pets shows extremely well. I could well imagine you making a good living from this wonderful art medium of yours. When I was but a small lad, my top exam marks at school, now a very long time ago, was for my art. I liked drawing the most, but oddly for me, when I did my first still life oil painting in the 1990s, I was pleasantly surprised by the result. Sadly, I couldn't manage to do the same today because of my rheumatoid arthritis. Best of all, it hasn't impared my appreciation of art like yours.

    strawman thank you for appreciating my art, have you still got your paintings would love to see them as for the Rheumatoid Athritis, my mother had that it was just awful watching her suffer, she was asked by her doctor to have her joints done in her hands and knees and she refused, them my father passed with a heart attack and my mother askedher doctor iff she could have the operation as she knew she was almost alone as my dad used to look after her and they said she left it to late, she was chair bound and sadly she passed away a year to the day of my fathers passing, she was only 68 was a very sad year.
    my friend has Rheumatoid athritis she on these tablets that keep it at bay in my mothers days 14 years ago they didnt have this.
    anyway iff you have your pics would love to see them and do take care i suppose you will be on these great pain killers and have you been offered operations.
