    My father was a painter, and a Hudson Bomber pilot in the north Atlantic flying anti sub patrols. Gone now, I have the only painting of his that I am aware of, that still survives today. Things of that nature are priceless. It is a sea scape, in oil, of a barge cut on lake Okeechobee. Field and Stream did a six page article on him in the 50s, he was a well known fishing guide.

    She needs noticed by high paying illustrators. Very nice drawing.
    Most of the tanks are gone and the windows don't rattle anymore. I won't be able to sleep now.

    I wish MY pencil sketches looked HALF as elegant and precised as your great granddaughter's work! She's a truly talented young lady!

    Is she by chance left handed???
    Majority of the artist I know are left handed.
    They say the left side of the body is the creative side.
    Father was an artist and was left handed.
    I'm right handed and can't draw anything at all.
    She has an amazing gift.
    It looks just like a photo.

    Isn't the left hand controlled by the right side of the brain? My left handed uncle used to say he was the only one in the family that was in his right mind.
    Paper targets aren't your friends. They won't lie for you and they don't care if your feelings get hurt.
