We just may have to do business after the 1st of august. I find myself with some huge empty spaces on the wall after removing alot of the wife's pictures.

I like your work! Was this one of the non-emotional ones?

Yus indeedy. I'm starting gently: I think I'm going to give it a couple of months of doing commissions and tat before embarking on the Secret Real Art that currently lives in my head. Although given the last time I looked at the notepad file I have over 75 complete and ready-to-paint works of Secret Real Art living in my head, I should probably get moving.

The portfolio should be online a couple of days after I get hold of a scanner, so hopefully by the end of the weekend. I will be posting links when it's all done :) And I'm more than happy to talk business, either by email or over a pint or two next time you're in town?

[monkage.livejournal.com]

I'm game either way, work has been brutal to me as of late and I'm doing my best to not lose track of friends.

We will definatly talk business though, this art style scream that I must possess some of it.

Huzzah, this is a thing I like to hear :) Maybe we could meet up next week?

[monkage.livejournal.com]

For this I think I could make arrangements for that. I'm off to goatfest on Saturday with Fraggle, but I should have open time on next Sunday. I'm a horrible driver in London, but you could guide me to where you'd like to meet. You have a portfolio ready?

[libellum.livejournal.com]

There should be a digital portfolio going up today, albeit incomplete because I can't get any of the FSKING SCANNERS to work. I don't have an easily transportable physical portfolio, not least because most of my recent work is currently hanging on various walls around the country.

Sunday I'm currently down to do Fruitstock with the boi, but I'm sure we could squeeze in a business meeting. Would lunch or evening be better for you?

[monkage.livejournal.com]

Honestly I'll know more after today. Depending on the time I'd be working would determine if lunch or dinner would be good. Also if they don't completely screw me with the hours I'll have, I could arrange to be in London in the middle of the week. Don't change any of your plans, I think we can work around each other's social schedules.

Sorry if thats not helpful, life is very choatic at the moment.

This might be a strange thing to say, but you're amazing at hands!

[libellum.livejournal.com]

Thankyou! I've always been drawn towards painting and drawing hands; almost as much as eyes. I still can't do feet, though. I'm also fairly mediocre at lacy panties :)

[arachne.livejournal.com]

Seconded - you give good hand, girl! (oo-er!)

[libellum.livejournal.com]

Woof!

[dreamfracture.livejournal.com]

lj-cut, please.

[libellum.livejournal.com]

Do you mind my asking why? Both images are work-safe, and no larger than 400x400px.

[dreamfracture.livejournal.com]

This one is arguably not work safe. Depends on your place of work, I guess.

It's not really important, don't worry about it.

[matt13.livejournal.com]

Try http://www.livejournal.com/manage/settings/ --> near the bottom is 'Image Placeholders'. You can set this to 'All Images', then it's always safe to check a friends page at work, whatever your definition of work-safe is.

Hope that helps :-)

[dreamfracture.livejournal.com]

Thanks, hadn't noticed that.

[mr_magicfingers]

I say, you're really rather good at this, aren't you.

I might have to chat to you sometime in the future, but being skint right now puts anything out of my range. I might be tempted by a picture of my own hands to put on the wall of anywhere I might end up permanently working.

Hope to chat with you soon anyway,

xxx.

[libellum.livejournal.com]

Of course, and thankyou :) Good luck with the financial argh - I very much know the feeling.

[ifimust.livejournal.com]

It occurs to me that there might be people who read my lj who do not read yours - may I link to this?

[libellum.livejournal.com]

Of course :D

[ladynina.livejournal.com]

Fantastic, at first glance I thought it was a photo. When I stop being a poor student I shall wave money in your direction.

[libellum.livejournal.com]

Thankyou kindly! Photo-realism isn't usually my style, but it'll do in a pinch. Remind me when your penury is due to end - is this a plan I should bear in mind for the foreseeable future, or more long term?

[edling.livejournal.com]

Just thought I'd mention that I've ninja-friended you after meeting you at Pen's punting expedition and working out the inevitable RL->LJ translation.
In an effort to be slightly on-topic: Blimey- you're really quite good at that painting thing!

[libellum.livejournal.com]

Hello! *waves*

Thankyou - hopefully I'm good enough that people will give me money to do it. That's the plan, anyway ;)

[hairyears.livejournal.com]

Have you posted a gallery or portfolio yet? I do occasionally buy original works, and you are worth watching.


In case you were wondering how I got here, I occasionally do random jumps though the Friends-of-Friends page.

[libellum.livejournal.com]

Thankyou! My portfolio is here (http://www.wax-and-wane.org/). Don't have much for sale at the moment as I'm mainly doing commissions, but I've got some projects on the go so there'll be more gallery stuff up soon :)

[aiwendel.livejournal.com]

awsome.
Do you paint these from photos?
they are incredible.

[giraffe-snapper.livejournal.com]

These are really great! I'm not sure how I've managed to miss all of your entries for the past year or so!!
