    this was my first thought. I tried other ideas but came back to this one because I like the simplicity of it.

    Never give up. You will never fail, but you may find a lot of ways that don't work.

    For all of its simplicity, Larry, I am compelled to look at your art!

    Can you outdo yourself now?

    (the correct answer is: yes)

    Oooh, I got an idea: the new age group Yes? Roger Dean did the artwork for their albums. Check out his website, look at his art and see if his positivity, his own "Yes to Art!" promise is strong enough to try to support the visual idea of infinity.

    Hey, I realize this is weird, but don't we usually go out on a limb on the Xone? Do you really want to go back to drawing spheres and cars and textures!? This is just another Tips and Tricks tutorial, except it folds back on itself, it erases itself before it is written, it is the heart or head of Zen, and we won't find out which until we sit down in Xara and explain it to ourselves graphically and then to the rest of the group.

    Are you all buying into all this Hippie crap?

    hope your feeling a lot better now gary...

    well infinite are the ways of doing art

    xara designer pro 8 - one brush plus a couple of ellipses - it's only a detail, the original is sorta big - you have to look at the attachment to see the 'skeletal structure effect', it smudges out in the thumbnail

    oifficial title 'hands up!'

    @Rik - oh very good, it would drive me round the bend trying to do something like that - give me impressionism or surrealism any day, but you are so good at it

    all good stuff

    Click here to see Paul's first three submissions.

    I really like your first one, Paul. Do you need a title in text? Perhaps text along the path? What font do we use for infinity?!

    You are a World Class artist and I'm trying to make you uncomfortable and a little unhappy with the art you submitted.

    I think you have one idea here spread across three canvases. How can you combine the best of all three executions?

    (an execution isn't what you'd think, not in art terms. In formal studies of art, you'd have a concept=which is the idea, and then the execution, which is how you expressed the idea...color, media, and so on)

    I'd be very thrilled if you became a Galaxy-Class artist while I was watching and critiquing your work!
