    Random Dolphin...

    I drew this the other night...just practicing technique and perspective.

    There are some tough things going on at the moment...and I'm in a mood...

    I just like that he's smiling...and striving...even reaching for things beyond.

    It reminds me to do the same.

    Why on a motorcycle site?

    (shrugs)...they leap out of the water for the same reason I ride me-thinks. Think about it.

      Nice. I used to love to watch the dolphins play with the ships when I was in the Navy. They seemed to know when we were out to watch them. They are also traditionally good luck to Sailors. Hope things are easing up for you...

        "Kinda sketchy..."

        My thought processes are too linear. Can't be abstract and have no artistic ability what so ever. Seems the only thing I can draw... are flies.
        Wish I had your ability.
        'course... knowing me... if I could draw a dolphin, he'd probably be snarled up in a tuna net.

          Just as long as its not saying "so long and thanks for all the fish". :-D

          Very nice. Watercolor is my prefered medium when it comes to art. I have a degree in fine arts but you can't pay the bills with it so I do software test kinda like you do IT but write on the side.

              Sigh, poured myself a tall galss of single malt the day Douglas Adams died.

              Oh wait, I've hijacked the thread. The dolphins made me do it!

                Very nice...I can't wait to show it to my daughter. She'll go nuts...major dolphin freak, is talking about being a marine biologist (I know, that's kind of weird where we currently reside).

                I can hear her now: "OOOOOO!!!! Dolphie dolphie dolphie dolphie..."
