Colin Cartwright
Clever and funny!
Superb art work and a sure fave.
Excellent expression of OTT fear! Mister Poe’s novel, certainly hits the fear spot with her! Maybe she should read it during the day?
I’ve a couple of Raven paintings in my early gallery here.
“But the raven, sitting lonely on that placid bust, spoke only
That one word, as if his soul in that one word he did outpour.
Nothing further then he uttered; not a feather then he fluttered;
Till I scarcely more than muttered, “Other friends have flown before;
On the morrow he will leave me, as my hopes have flown before.”
Then the bird said, “Nevermore.”
The Raven
Edgar Allen Poe (1809 – 1849)
ROUBLE RUST replied
(oh, you just make my day, maybe year ..!!!)I appreciate it so much Colin, thank you for taking the time to write to me ALL this beautiful words… I’m so pleased you like it & soooo so flattered!
Colin, it’s such an honor you wrote from “The Raven” here.
...All your comment should be shown together with my painting or… in the description on the right!!! (’’,)

louisaeet
hehe wonderfull image : ) reminds me so much of myself (staying up till the very odd hours of the morn reading till my eyes go red :p though i find it a far better time to read what with being tierd and all it makes scary or sad scenes all the more intence hehehe i end up a bawling mess during any sad parts of a book. hehehe thanks for sharing now i know why my family laugh at me when they see me curled up on the couch jumping as soon as any one makes a noise :p even the cats give me heart atacks hehe
ROUBLE RUST replied
ooooh my…!!! You rock dear. I think I can imagine it – when I’m tired of reading, painting even when I’m just going to sleep, if i sense any tiny-little noise or think I heard something..? Weird… I open my eyes for some scary moments and then I jump out of bed and I open the light to look around..! Oh my, thanks for sharing this with me louisaeet – now I know I’m not the only one!!! hehe! (’’,) Hope you having a great day or night… THANK YOU!

Very nicely illustrated. I particularly like the background coloring and the way the ‘light’ mixes in, reflects and bounces off the wall. My kind of illustration. LJF
