    Lovely work on the decanter. And you have your own Egyptian houseboy, nice of him to pose for you.
    Saludos,
    Bob.

    Thank you very much Bob! The decanter was the second drawing so I guess it was always going to be slightly different to the first.

    Michele, that is funny. I wouldn't mind a houseboy either

    I really like the decanter but your houseboy is good. The more delicate strokes on the decanter give it a bit more sophistication.

    Could you hold my beer while I dig out my license?

    That decanter is great Michele - is that a face I see reflected in the stopper, or just my imagination?

    Yep, all that spare time could be spent creating more things with Xara! lol
    Thanks Burpee I enjoyed your comments... but it was just a scribble and some of it joined up so thought I'd keep it as part of the appearance than try and just use strokes only. Pleased you liked it though, thanks again!

    Love it....
    The decanter especially impresses me...
    I would love to see you put a back ground layer in there and add some "stained glass" colouring effect....
    allot of feeling in your work...

    Thanks morphonius! Is this what you would like to see??
    I'm sure someone else could probably come up with more variations of the stained glass look but this is it for now....I had fun with it though!
    The mauve colour is a bit on the blurry side...it looked better as a xar file but you get the idea though...

    I do like the middle one, Michele.
    The one on the right might look better in a dark blue, like Bristol Glass.
    As in the "something simple" thread by TimS where I posted a photo as an example.
    Saludos,
    Bob.
