6. marg wrote: I don't know what the word for this is - it's not surreal, but it's a stunning use of the opalescent shading.. just beautiful, Qsilv.. |
7. Qsilv wrote: Thanks, marg. I thought a bit before adding a downer note here, but in the end I just couldn't let it be completely ignored. |

12. Qsilv wrote: Thanks for that, Angela. Art's not all about didacticism either... it IS about sharing a focus. |
13. marg wrote: .. ? I guess it may be, but to me, art is just communication.. and I prefer people who say it in a picture, rather than people who numb your ears because talking doesn't take any effort.. |
14. marg wrote: Oh no - just re-read that and it sounded all wrong - thanx for the pic & the info. - I'd be really interested to know what your focus actually is (er hmm - in THIS world) ? |
15. Qsilv wrote: well, I try to always look at the whole, perhaps because my tendency is to fixate on details. I suspect both thinking and talking WELL do take some effort. Communication = Sharing. ;> |
