    This is wonderful It might be an apt metaphor for headache. The Impala seems pissed off. Excellent as usual. Cheers RVG

  • Lynnette Shelley replied

    wouldn’t YOU be pissed off if a big annoyingly-cheerful fire-breathing bird decided to nest on YOUR head? lol

    i love your art piece here
    truly creative and a glimpse of how your third eye views things
    love this piece

    i and perez of Lifeline
    have a challenge called Identity with one’s Affinity
    Basically its challenge that involves you conveying what animal in the animal kingdom you can truly relate to
    And it would help if you could describe how the animal is a reflection of you, with your piece

    hope to see one of your AMAZING PIECES IN THE CHALLENGE
    and if you haven’t become a member yet hope to see you apart of the group
    sincerely perez and i -colorblind

    You manage to put a lot of detail into your pictures, but without making them look cluttered. That is one of my personal weak spots, but I am improving (I hope). You have the right balance.

  • Lynnette Shelley replied

    Thank you Dave. You shouldn’t knock yourself though because you do fantastic work. I am working on something now that (if I don’t screw it up!) you may like (perhaps). Hopefully it should be finished by tonight or tomorrow at latest.
