A wonderful gift BB8 x

[Blackbird8 in reply to Bkin]

Definitely is 💜

[Jaybird19]

Isnt that nice of them to do thst for you, A painting has more character than a photograph.

[Blackbird8 in reply to Jaybird19]

It's very kind 💜

[Davegt in reply to Jaybird19]

That can be true but Blackbird's photographs are a work of art not just snaps. Anyone can take a snap but getting well composed photographs at the right exposure with correct depth of field is a skill. Blackbird has an eye for interesting subjects and getting the right composure.

[Davegt in reply to Davegt]

Having said that the painting is lovely. Stan the Man at his best. 😀👍

[Blackbird8 in reply to Davegt]

Stan the man is at his best when asleep 😂😂

[Jaybird19 in reply to Davegt]

Of course . I agree completely . I have always admired blackbirds a photographs and look forward to seeing them . She. has an eye for composition and light .But have you seen the Series on Sky aArts Tv of portrait painting competitions bèing shown again at present and you will see how an artist can add more than a photo can. I do appreciate that as I try to do both myself , but with only varying success.

[Davegt in reply to Jaybird19]

Hi Jaybird. No I haven't seen that but do admire the quality of many paintings. I just wanted to give Blackbird praise as she has a real skill. Lol Take Care 😀 👍

[Jaybird19 in reply to Davegt]

I dont hink she realises how good they are. I forward lots of them for my sister to enjoy too

[Davegt in reply to Jaybird19]

I have told her numerous times how talented she is and sometimes pass on to friends to brighten their day. Of course she is so modest. 😀

A really lovely gesture and a gorgeous picture to treasure. Did the artist use a photograph to get such a good likeness?

[Blackbird8 in reply to RoadRunner44]

Yes all from one of my pictures on the business page ...It's an amazing likeness 💜

[RoadRunner44 in reply to Blackbird8]

I have a framed charcoal drawing of my jack russel dog who i loved dearly. She's long gone now but each time I pass the picture on the wall it reminds me of her. X

Very wise and thoughtful. There is a Gandalf in there somewhere.

[Blackbird8 in reply to SORRELHIPPO]

I sometimes call Stan.. Gandalf 😂🧡

[SORRELHIPPO in reply to Blackbird8]

Well he did know enough as to how to mark a hobbit's door, to tell the dwarves where they could get good food. I presume Stan has the same knowledge!
