Got my hot-air thingy out and had a bit of a play today. Rather pleased with the results! I'll start with the A5 flower: Lily ![]() Then I had a go at a fantasy A5: Castles in the Myst ![]() After that I did an A5 Dragon-World pic: From Out of the Fire ![]() And to finish I had a go at an A4 Dragon: Dragonmyst ![]() As I said, I'm pretty pleased with them all! Enjoy! Maria x |

They are all wonderful ... if I were to choose a favourite it would be the last one - I just love the expression on the dragons face. Truely masterful pieces

Did you cut off bits and drop onto the card and then blow with your hotairthingy? I've still to try and haven't even done any EA for a couple of months now, sadly no time but I loved your work. The lily is my favourite.

Many thanks for all the lovely comments. Jo, I began with a layer of clear wax, then melted drops of colour over that in the centre of the card, swirled other colours round the edges with the iron then used the hot-air tool to do the remainder, finishing off where necessary with the stylus and iron.

The last dragon is fantastic, and I love the lily. You are very talented! Perhaps you could post instructions in the tips and techniques for we newbies...it will take some time before I would dare try this and I might not be able to find this post again.........thanks in advance Salx |

Thanks Sal! Actually, I was thinking of doing one of my paintings as a step-by-step excercise! What do you reckon? Let me know what subject though, fairies or dragons, whatever you fancy and I'll see what I can come up with. Maria x |
