This is the "Water" picture to the Air/Freedom and Earth/Reverence pictures.

It has been long due but it never seemed to sit in my head cmforatable enough to make me want to try put it to paper. Now I finally got it out, and it is way less wild then I though it would be. It is approaching, not just there yet. Storms are beautifull and threatening. They put a moof in the air which I personally really enjoy and is followed by an outburst to leave the earth refreshed and new.

Well.. Hope you like it! Hope I can get some more done this summer.. I should have time!!

Beautiful! Like all of your work. Great face and expression. I love the clouds. For some reason its really hard for me to draw clouds. Your great at it. Its so realistic... Awesome

I like your use of coloured paper. I haven’t gotten around to working with that myself, but you make me want to try. The limited range of colours makes the piece all the more effectful; it conveys a lot of emotion.

:-) Meike de Nooy replies: "Try try try!!! it is sooooo rewarding!"
