About StGeorgeOfEngland

Am I really 107? You may never know.

For the best part of the past 30 years I have said 'I don't draw'. My art college tutor told me that I had no artistic skill and booted my butt out the place. Sort of killed any passion I had to develop any skills.
More recently I have been going through great changes in my life and have found that drawing (or attempting to) is helping me to relax. I am not promising great pictures but what I have I will share. My brain is picking up where the 16 year old stopped drawing so bear with me. Feel free to offer CONSTRUCTIVE criticism for I wish to improve.
I have to say thanks to the people who have inspired me to try again. Two in particular have supported me and encouraged me.
Thanks Mrs. Goofball and SG, you know who you are.

I love art of all kinds and have a very open mind to most things. I don't get chopped up animals, dirty beds and garden sheds though. Can somebody tell me what that is about?
I like the art of painters such as LS Lowry, JMW Turner, William Blake (quite dark and disturbing), Richard Parkes Bonnington, Renoir plus many more.

I like the photography of Henri Cartier-Bresson and Frank Meadow Sutcliffe.

I am lucky in the respect that I have a major art gallery and a beautiful sculpture park within easy reach of my house.

Yes, I'm the same mad fool from Inklink. I have many friends from there that are fantastic artists here. That's why I came along. To view.

Browse the many varities of styles and skills here. If you enjoy them half as much as I do then you will have a good time.

Have fun, smile alot, love alot, make friends, drink heartily and eat well.
Peace and love to you all.

Something I was told a while ago:

It is very easy to find the bad in a person.
It is sometimes hard to find the good in a person but well worth the effort when you do.

Regards,
G.

Hi StG. Thank you for your informative and kind comment on my Remembrance Day tribute. My Dad used to tell me stories of himself as an able seaman in WW2 and stories of my British Grandfather in WW1. I would sit and listen just trying to understand what he/they must have gone through. We can never truly know. Even as difficult as those years in his life were, he was a proud Canadian and his stories were always interesting and educational. These stories were so personal, nothing you could ever read in a history book! I miss him alot but also "remembering" WITH him. Now it's important to "remember" FOR him. Thank you for the appreciation! ;-) L8*

Thamks my wonderful friend for commenting and cheering my art work. I know it is a bummer with the slowness of the program. Hugs

I guess I am a glutton for punishment. I keep coming back to FU, I don't seem to be able to leave it. I know it is soooo irritating at times. I get disgusted and say to myself...NO MORE! Than like an addict I come back. SIGH! i AM ALSO DRAWING ON Queeky.com. Kutiedimples wanted me to draw there. Three sites plus my social site bebo, is a lot to keep up with. TOOOOO MUCH really!!!! Going to MN. in March should give you some time for enjoying the snow. How long will your visit be? Catch you on FG Thanks for coming over to the Poo side of art. Were you looking for me? LOL Sparky did today as well. Thanks my wonderful friend. I will be on FG to draw very soon. LU

Thanks George, Much of what I draw brings back a happy memory for you. That is wonderful. Love is a many spendored thing. :D

Heh Guy, i am so ready for that Island. We would have a blast don't you think? Meno, you and Ms. Fuzz. Some margaritas, pina coladas, wine beer, sunshine,sea, and sand. You at the barbie. WHOOOHOOO I AM SOOOO READY! Thanks for your cheers and comments.Hugs!

Awwww Sorry about the cardinal. I will do a proper one. It just wasn't coming together like I wanted. They are Kentucky's State bird. We have them everywhere. They are so beautiful. Set against the snow, it is incrediable to see. Thanks for your cheers and comment.

thanks george...a gulley washer is coming 4 sure. LOL

Hi, Guy! *waves* I'm with you on FU ... a week, tops. What a way to run a site. Bollocks! ;)

thanx loadz 4 the cheers n coment x

Hi ya St.G! Pleased to see your return; pleased to read your comments & receive your cheers. Thanks very much ;-) L8*

quite the opposite'in rude health guy!

Lots of comments, lots of cheers = lots of thanks!! ;-) L8*

Thanks, George! And a big ol' American-style (((HUG!))) right back atcha ... I'll miss you while you're away :)

Thank you for your kind comment! lol- yes we Brits are Nuts!going to post Moonriver possibly if I can Video it! lol and Hugs Chris M-B

So sorry St George, I don't know what I did to send that cheers thing as I thought i was just browsing and must have inadvertantly touched something i shouldn't have!! Anyway I really thought it was a pleasant image with nice use of colour. I noticed there were no people on the scene. Looks like a nice street to stroll along with a pal. Would you mind taking a look at my first attempts on here and share your thoughts (Im open to any critisisms, I can take it, I think!)E.R

Hi there! Thanks for the comment on my Middle of the Night. I'm actually heading off to bed. It's my typical bedtime 4am! You referring to me with insomnia? Nah...since I was a teen I've only required 3 hrs sleep per night. No idea why, but happy I can gain so many waking hours in a day. I love being awake and hate to miss out on anything life offers - hehe. People with insomnia want to sleep but can't...I don't want to sleep!! The problem is...I have no idea where the extra hours go like the other hours of the day. I'm classified by friends as a night owl, but a morning person too, since one leads into the other. hehe. Anyhow, good morning to you, good night to me, TTYL, L8* ;-)

no probs! glad you liked the vids...

Thanks St.G! I have an idea...if you flip my pics upside down I bet some of them will look like skies? Maybe the water ones? hehe...j/k Regardless, pleased you like scenes without as well! ;-) L8*

The coronation street drawing Tony S did I think the missing characters are Albert Tatlock and Minnie Caldwell

^_^ thanks George! Enjoy the Jason Mraz CD! lol

mornin guy'minnie caldwell'lol

enjoy the sights guy'might give you some more good idea's that you can transfer to canvas'you never know'

you are very welcome! Hope my crit was a bit constructive!

Thanks Guy, enjoy the ocean breeze, warm sunny weather and your cold cider.:)))

Good morning Guy. Yes the red barns are an iconic feature of the country side here. Sounds like you really enjoyed your visit to the USA. The state I live in is so beautiful. I live in the heart of the horse country. The greatest horse race in the world is run fifty miles from me. The Kentucky Derby. Thorobred horse farms are all around me. We are the number one in state parks in the nation. We have such varied terraine. The Daniel Boone National Forrest is a big part of our geography. The Appalacian Mountains also. From rolling hills to mountinous regions we enjoy such beautiful landscape. We are cak=lled The Bluegrass State. When Daniel Boone, as an early explorer, gazed upon a field of grass, seeded, it had a blue hue. Yes the grass is sold as seed. It is not very drought resistent, thus must be blended with other for landscape us. Anyway, I love all I see around me in nature. Therefore I just really love drawing it. I love where I live. I never tire of viewing it's beauty. I am glad you enjoyed the barn with me. Hugs

Hi Guy, Glad you liked my "storm" animation. Dogskull expressed the same thing. That is an unexpected bonus.LOL

hi guy'no whats gone has gone'the limit of three a day as been set now'but after reading some of the views'which got quite offensive to me'that i never commented'which is untrue'my heart aint quite ready to draw there yet'dont think our neighbours over the water are quite as tactful as us.

hi george'glad you decided to draw again!

Thanks! added you

Thank you for the cheers and comment Guy. :) The sunsets bring you in.

may I add you as a friend please?

Thank George for the comment. I will work a thing to death. LOL Meno has always called me Ms persistent.:) hope you enjoy your holiday.

THX f4 the C&C

Fishbone rox also :)

George, I'm really digging the fact that you're drawing! Discouraging words spoken by insensitive adults during our impressionable years are hard to shrug off (I know!) ... but shrug you must, because your Inner Artists has spoken and will be contained no longer ... hooray! Hug!

TY George for the cheers and comment. I am a admirer snd sunsets as well

Hey George, thanks a lot! I appreciate your cheers and comments! Thank you my friend

Ha! as in 'Ha – I knew you could draw!' No more light under bushel hiding for you m'lad! I would be very proud of that sunflower, well done.

Hi George! I'm fine .... was out of town for a few days, is all. The upset stomach only lasted one day ... thanx for asking!

thx for the comments

Hi ya St.G. or should I say Sting G.? hehe. Yes, I was singing and playing his song as I was drawing...go figure! Love that song, love that singer! Thanks always for the support & encouragement. ;-) L8*

Hi StG. Thanks for the Cda Day wishes! It was a beautiful day, almost like I drew. The skies were gorgeous & almost matched the red in our flag. Thanks again for the inspiring comment(s) & cheers! L8*

Hi George....I see you are here also!!

There you go again with the very nice comments and cheers. Thanks for the encouragement and I very pleased you enjoy the 'scapes! L8* ;-)

Ty :)

Yes, Many of my friends are obsessive about herbs, herbial treatments etc. I think MDs have there place, herbal treatment, chiropractors, etc. I try to be balanced in my approach. It is not easy. The drink you talked about, with burdock, what is it and how do you make it? I may have to google some stuff. I would be up a creek if I couldn't take garlic. Externial application is good also. I use it on the skin. I put it on my grandson's bow bows. It works faster than the chemicals.

Hey my kindred herbal users. Nothing but Vit C, Echinacea and Golden seal when I have an infection or illness. I am allergic to antibiotics. I have been "into" herbs for a long time. GARLIC IS THE BEST FOR SOOOO MUCH. If your ear hurts, open a soft jel of garlic oil drop it in the ear. Then go stand in a crowd, maybe no one will know it is you. LOL Use the odorless, it isn;t but MUCH BETTER. Have a sore on your tongue. Use garic oil. Valarian root for calming. You probaly know all this and more. I also did a successful all natural cancer treatment. The Hoxey Treatment. Went to the Bio-Medical Center in Mexico. Every day I use Himalayan Goji juice by freelife. Great stuff. Just wanted to chat with you about these interests we share. You sound like you are well versed on the subject. I have let up some. Used to buy goats milk, free range chicken eggs.shop the The Good Foods Co-op. I need to get back to right. I would be healthier. Just lazy I think. I would like to know about the drink you told Meno about. You make it I assume. BTW dandoline juice, never drank it. Aloe Vera juice was a part of my Hoxey treatment. Sorry if I rattled on and bored you to tears. :D

Actually, I am much into the healing powers of herbs ... I take feverfew to prevent migraines, cat's claw for arthritis, turmeric for general wellness ... and herb teas just for the hell of it :) And, yeah, I'm sure root beer and burdock are probably kissin' cousins, anyway ;) OK, call off the duel! (P.S. You ARE the only person on the planet who likes Wings! Too sappy :P But, I'll always love Paul!)

A&W Root Beer "disgusting?!" Sir, I challenge you to a duel! Well ... okay ... maybe a Burp-Off! You drink dandelion juice? And you think WE'RE crazy? Ha!

Dang, George, I thought we were already chums ... sorry 'bout that!

hey u x

Hi Guy! Yep, it's Meno :) My husband contributed the joke for your chameleon but it was SO dorky I deleted it! REALLY dorky :P I loved yours, though ... really gave me a laff ;D So, see ya here, see you at FG; where you won't see me is the Dark Side!

Hi George! Just stopping by to say hi and thanks for the message. I see you have been baptized in dark waters. 2 draw is really an odd and dark community. Not nearly as bad as it was 3 years ago. The artists then were for the most part exceptional and very, very, elitist, often nasty. Some like Axil ... posted and posts comments that are so offensive that I stopped drawing there for a long long time. In that world, the overall attitude is that this is the way, truth and light. Most of this attitude was based on a follow the leaders attitude. I am amazed by that need people seem to have for acceptance. Sometimes and in that situation, most of the critics don't see any wrong in their comments and approach. I have learned to ignore this only because I have a greater need to use those tools for my goals and personal development. Long story ... I won't bore you. I miss all of you and try to keep up with the little time I have as often as I can. I saw your comment before you deleted it and wanted to say thanks. You are a classy guy! Take care!

oh yeh, you have to sign out as you first, then back as FUWorld. But you can view it any time.

You can rant that rant to me any time you want!! *L*
In my gallery George you will find a few themes.
The occasional realism, slightly painterly

2 pieces of hyperrealism

lotsa kewt lil bears...but of course!

Tons of FUolish FUn FU art. I started a gallery called FUWorld to collect everyones FU art. If you ever have lots of time, feel free to move any FU art you find floating around into that gallery and just leave a note to the artist who drew it. Instructions are on the FUWorld profile.I will add you as a friend on there so you can find it. Basically anyone can sign in as FUWorld, the password is on the profile. Then you can add art to it. You copy others by adding a dot, just give credit with the artists name if you move one over. The gallery is fun, havE A look and a go at it (as you Brits say *big grin*)

Patterns of all sorts, I love making patterns and doodles.

Last but not least, community draws, i have at least 50 or more I have participated in. Love em!

Due to the lag monster tho..will completely understand if you dont make it past page one *L*

hehe..I named it the Dark Side *L* I am a teacher and HATE what goes on over there. I did some lovely work, loved the drawing applet, but some of those ppl should be shot! Really. Or hung. Art is sacred and art making efforts to be admired no matter WHAT the result, we all started somewhere. They are just big bullies with complexes.
*end rant*
I will go and read your profile tomorrow! *grin* I love the humor here, most of my gallery is silly stuff, I can do serious realism but I NEED silly escape to function as a decent human being *L*
nice to meet you *S*

How you do not have ME on your friends list nor me have YOU on mine is such an oversight *L*
I intend to remedy that right away.
We run...in the same Sketchfu circle, tho I am an original YouDrawer but a close friend of Late from there. Quite a few You Drawers came over here, about 30 at one point. Then we got a wonderful influx of you InkLinkers and i have made quite a few friends among you *S*

:D:D hahaha yellow lol ... but you gotta admit it wasn't extremely easy lol

tease :P that looked good! publish!! please!! (bwark bwark!!)

You are a poopie, that looked nice!

'Tiz ok, I just am not an ejamucated skolar! ;)

Say! Where is the "Ghoya's Ghosts" you speak of in Emi's comments?

Webcam image pffft, that was embedded in my memory from that time.....oh nvm!

lmao @ la famille rosbif ;P (not for your french tho ;D ) hehehe

Thank you so much for the valuable comments. I appreciate them, and ofcourse I don't mind I added you

AWWWWWWWWWWWW WHYYYY sayin that ? :) yup its you as a baby and you nnever see me with my glasses and crossed eyes ;P

Hi ya StG. Thanks for leaving some very nice comments & compliments on my draws. Very pleased you enjoy my 'skies'. Always been a cloud & sky worshiper. Thanks much ;-) L8*

Merci :D

WOW thx for the wonderful comment.. i just see things on the page with my mind. and trace it out. when it works lol..

hiiiiiiiiiii Georgie :) Ty for all those great comments :) and... cant take off that scarf : it snowed tonite !!!

Hi ya StG. Thanks alot for the nice comments you are leaving behind on my legends draws. I'm pleased you are enjoying them as much as they are challenging me! I enjoyed the Attaturk quote you left behind on my Yvonne draw. Thanks for educating me, as well! ;-) L8*

Is it just me or can you not get on to inklink either? It has been so long now >.<

Thank you, George, and very Happy Easter to you too!!

LOL George I had no idea toy story was on until about 10 mins ago when my son turned over. yay for toy story hes now sat mouth open and QUIET for the 1st time today hehe

Hey, George, it's my strong belief that art is for everyone. Thanks for the add. I thought your stand up Chameleon was hilarious. If you wish, you can "slay" some of my dragons LOL. :-)

Hi, George, it's jemmers from inklink. I've been meaning to join the fun here for awhile. This site is awesome. :>)

every one has artistic skills.. we all just need to find it.. thx for the comments... :)

Hi ya StG. Just wanted to thank you very much for your praise, comments, encouragement and cheers for the many cheers on my draws. I really appreciate the time you take to do so ;-) As for the Legends series I am doing...I am being a little "Country Proud" and drawing the Canadian Stars & the pattern is I am drawing those that have left us. So as for Liz Taylor, I'm not sure if I could 'do her justice' by attempting to draw her. I did draw an older Liz on YouDraw some time ago... http://www.youdraw.com/cgi-bin/solopic.pl?picnum=354658 But perhaps, I'll surprise you & moreso, myself and try. Thanks again! L8*

LOL you guys were not suppose to see that yet! i am not giving up but i AM deleting or you will be sick of it before i finish! The lag even got to me tonight :( Thanks for the encouragment :D

Haha yes I was thinking but I kept wondering why in the name of all that is holy my foot was being chewed by some dude :p Maybe its something I don't want to know :p

Thankyou for the welcome! Its good to see lots of familiar names from Inklink! thanks again... val xxx

Wow you sound so nice in your profile, think I'm not as scared of you anymore lol. :p Umm well anyway, my Apocalypto painting is just for fun, its gonna turn out really bad I know it >.< Sure the Mayan ar related to 'us' the Inca in Southamerica, but they have their own culture. We are more fun, haha. jk. I love all 'american' native cultures, fascinated about my dads as well as the brothers in central and north-america and will probably draw most my painting based on these themes....with the occassional weird cartoon hehe :D Thank you for commenting and making me feel like I am not doing all too horrible job :D. I miss InkLink :( -hugs- Have a wonderful friday night-weekend.

AWWWWWWW NOOO why you changed that profile pic ??? lol all my plans are destroyed now :P oh well...

YOU ARE JUST AMAZING!!!! As for breeding...those little Arab fillies are shy and skittish! I would suggest extreme patience... big rewards... the breed will grow on you, trust me! Thanks for the flattering comment and the wonderful humor... just the right spice to make it especially delightful!

Hi George! Thanks for the message! I appreciate the information. Seeing as how I am not yet impressed with myself I can tell you I have not been to ink link only you draw and 2 draw... Both experiences tell the tragic, and ugly beginnings of learning digital art. Most of my submissions were indeed badly done. It has taken great time and patience for me to learn to post something half way decent. So, no I haven't been there yet. I recently took a trip to deviant art. I can upload photography and real art at that site.. Thats my huge forgettable bio! Three kids! Thats wonderful! I love watching children as much as watching horses! They are amazing little people... great subjects for art... surprised I don't see more. Well thanks again! Its so nice to see such wonderful fun and positive people joining!

Woe is me! I guess I will live and die in suspense! No offense meant toward your pic, it just looks like , almost exactly the position babies manage to get into when discovering their feet...foot in mouth... you know? What is Inklink?

Well now! Let's see what should I say first? I think I will comment on your avatar.... hahahahahahaha that is so cute, no funny, no I think it is hilarious! And now I just don't know.... are you? as you said I picture you? Post a picture and then I will know!!!!!!

No red wine on *HERE* SG! it was a 7.30am view :P. thanks for the encouragment

Hey St. G! Thats for adding me, I've heard about you from my mum! Yes! Gossip!
Nah, all of it is good so far =D Love your stand up chameleon!

thankyou so much for the lovely comments on my gecko SG...i would be honoured to know that my draw is on your kitchen board :D thankyou

Hi St.G...Enjoy reading your kind comments on my draws. I also appreciate any & all cheers you send, too. Thanks much! Oh, I see you've quoted a great Canadian group, Nickelback, on your profile. Love that song & love their music. Great stuff! L8*

Thanks George! I don't deserve such a nice comment... I really wanted to experiment with the color and texture of these gems. I have a pic in mind... a bit more involved with pearls. But is always nice to receive such kind comments. Thanks again!

STOOOOOOOP IIIIIIIIT! *grins*

Hi there ! I thought we already connected... Another site never gaathered so many Inklinkers, except Inklink of course.

ha ha... you crack me up Georgie! Helllooooooooo!!!! (remember me from Ink?)

Thanks again, St.G for the great comments & for "cheering" me on! L8*

Oh yeah ! DOH!!! you got me.....lol Snake Grannie :P

thankyou for the compliments StG... but what do you mean about having the same initials? S.G.? you lost me there lol

Thanks for the comments. >.< Looking sharp for 107.

Hi St.G! Cheers for the cheers & very supportive comments. Appreciated very much. L8* ;-)

hey ho good ta be finally on ere great fun just practicing bloody hard though, put some fun stuff up first then may try do something good in the coming weeks haha

HI UR MY FRIEND!!!

Hi George... you always take time to leave very meaningful comments on artists work, I think this absolutely super for you to be so supportive. I personally appreciate your comments and send a big thanks! I see you are venturing out a bit in the drawing world... looking forward to that one day you will send us a drawing!

Hi George thnx for always taking time to look at my work and the kind comments you leave :)

Hihi, well every time you think of Da Vinci, you get all happy, and don't know what to say really. That's how it is for me... If I lived in the same time as him, and the same countrey, I would... Hm, I don't know what I'd do :D

Aww thnx for comment about 10 minutes sketch :) And i delete a pic if it takes along time to draw then bring it back up later to finish or else people r looking at half finished stuff all the time and get bored of pic :)

Thanks George! I do appreciate that comment. It has taken me quite sometime to really see clearly ... and then the drawing got easier. I am tackling things I would never have thought to do a year ago! Thanks again!

Hi George! Thanks for the nice comment! I had a jigsaw puzzle many years ago that was just masts and rigging against an orange sky. These many years later...it became an inspiration for me to use in a practice with the straight line tool! Glad you liked it!

thanks for your kind words :)

Hi George... you know, sometimes, rarely but sometimes you just make a great connection with people..I really liked Fuzzy right off, and I can see why you two are friends! I am so glad both of you found us! You will see what a wonderful group we are here! Welcome!

What a really nice comment... thanks so much! Welcome and please feel free to add me as a friend! Something tells me you draw very well?!

Yeah! Good thing you didn't kill my little dragon! I'm glad you spared that one XD

LOL , Hi george Yeah of course u can good to see you :)

*waves*...rice pudding almost done!xoxox
