Deevaa ~ I went to WetCanvas and took a look. God! I love that site. I joined. I laughed about your story of the two eyes. Struck me very funny especially because right away I had taken note that this one of your paintings had TWO eyes! I was showing my friend the painting here on the Loveblender earlier today and I said, "Well, here it is! Usually all her paintings have only one eye. I guess I get two because they're closed." To which my friend replied, "One eye only or two closed, you'd still see things no one else can see. Always have, always will." I showed my friend all the work you've posted to the Blender. My friend was VERY impressed.<BR>

Yeah Dee, the lips are perfect! The face is a bit cartoonish! Heee!  S'okay though, I like the first one very much. And it will end up being your most famous work because of the two eyes! Ha!<BR>

Kylie ~ Thanks girl!<BR>

TJ -- Well, having done it twice has reduced the 'special' ness of the painting having two eyes. LOL

Vish, in both Australia and New Zealand all public buildings, including office buildings and construction sites have a no smoking policy.<BR>
<BR>
Restaurants/bars must have a non smoking section.<BR>
<BR>
I'm a non smoker. I like it.<BR>

Hey all. In BC, smoking is allowed only out of doors. It's actually a unique experience for us to cross the border into Washington and have the option to smoke in restaurants.<BR>
<BR>
Devaa: the painting is quite good: I like your soft flushing flesh tones" you've captured the translucency of skin very well. Good job! :)<BR>
<BR>
August is a good issue, Kirk: well done! :) Have you given any thought to collecting up for a publishable anthology?<BR>
