    Lightbulb What I do :)

    Well I'm new here! My grandfather, Parahandy as you all knew him, Norman, was a regular user of these forums and he would always tell me how lovely the people were when showing you all his art work. So I thought that now I have inherited all his drawing porgrammes I would join the forum too! I'm more of a drawing painting kind of girl but I'd like to work out how to use these xara things to see what I can do!

    I thought I'd just share some of my paintings to get the ball rolling as it were, as when my grampa posted some pictures I'd drawn (a LONG time ago) they were a bit ... awful! So here's some newer things :P

    A very warm Welcome Alex - glad to have you here

    Norman was a very special member of Talkgraphics and one who made many friends here. He is still sadly missed by us all.

    Your artwork certainly looks fine to me, I look forward to seeing more.
    Maybe I could ask for a little background information to each image you post to add further inerest?

    When you post, please attach images to your post, that way they don't disappear if the external link goes down.

    Hi Alex, welcome to the forum. Nice to see the old avatar pressed into service again. Norman already has his memory assured here and now we all look forward to seeing more of your work.
    Saludos,
    Bob.

    Hello Alex,

    Welcome to the forums.

    I like your drawings. As sledger mentioned if you add a little background information it makes things more interesting. How were you inspired to draw the images?

    It is a pleasure to have one of Norman's relatives as a member.
