Pessivendole a Piran

Done after Armando Salas' beautiful sketch (notice the sub-gallery title *wink*). It was a great pleasure and the opportunity to learn a lot. I could not however resist the temptation to take some artistic licences. Sorry, Armando ;) Gouache on paper. 30*40 cm. I apologize for the poor quality, but i had to take a photo, since atm i dont have a scanner facility.

Cristina, the perspective, the details in the baskets and sails and the buildings and the motifs and the whole arrangement is really wonderful!

You've certainly given it your own style Cristina, very nicely done indeed :D

Christina, this is just beautifully done, I love how you changed the buildings and the setting but the ladies and fisherman are a clear indication of the original, I know this has been quite an emotional experience for Armando, for us all. I hope we all can do this again soon :)

I already know my father's painting. Your version is better for sure. (Just renouncing to the legacy... LOL:-)

CRISTINA, this is awesome.... Though the writer of the "OneWorldPeace Project" (Alex) thinks this is "only" a "Color- My -Fish- PIC"(????) I do applaud you for all your tremendous efforts and I love it. (read the Armando "What if...? CHALLENGE then you'll know what I'm talking about...) Love and Light~OLGA

Eighteen artist (I'm included) are involved in this project until now. I was tninking about a "standard" comment for all people. Although you all are the real artists, it's as if your creatures were "my kids". Does a father show preferences? Not at all. All of them, sons and daughters are beautiful and loved. I'll not like to hurt someone because I write "Wonderful" to one and "Lovely" to another one. I must be cautious because I know all people put the same feelings and passion for art in their work. When I got this idea I thought: "If I'm lucky, perhaps 3-4 artists..." I couldn't suspect 17 TALENTED artists more (by now :-) were ready to share this strange experience. Sorry my English knowledge isn't good enough to express my feelings but all of you must know I truly appreciate your endless support in all I do or start. Yes, this one is my STANDARD comment. AMAZING WORK! I feel myself honored because you are part of my project and my heart. No more words are needed. Thank you very much. Love you
