This is my first landscape![]() I had tried introducing a bird flying in the sky but I made a complete mess so melted it off and left it with a fading sun. I'm really pleased with it. This is my first fantasy - I love it!! Entitled 'The Gathering'. ![]() I have just purchased a stylus and can't wait for some 'me time' to have a go. Salx |

Oh my. The landscape is wonderful. The Fantasy is wonderful. You wait till you have a play with the stylus (my new fave thing) - It'll blow you away! Really well done! x Col! |

Great work, Sal The stylus will certainly help with birds and such
I always had trouble using te iron for those (too shaky
) so I had to use the scraper until I got a stylus

Hi Sal Very impressive for first tries (I had a bucketful of "first tries" before I came up with anywhere as good as yours) Just wait till you get the stylus - there'll be no stopping you. It's the most amazing medium - and you'll never tire of finding new ways and ideas for using wax... The "happy mistake" from the bird to a sunset really sets your pic off. Lovely work. Love x

Thank you all again for the lovely warm welcome and your comments. At this rate I'll be wanting 'my own gallery' but until I get the iron out again I can't help thinking it's just beginners luck Salx |

If that is the case, it's a really long and productive 'beginners streak' x Col! |
