yes we do have that, and I'm using it.. but it's still not completely without any smell (haha, btw I quite like the smell, it's cozy)..but inhaling it is still not very healthy. so when sharing a room with about 2 square meters or drying canvas, it gives you a nice headache..
Great to hear about your student!! she must have attitude, starting to draw at 75.. respect! I'm so happy to have inspired someone like that. :>
I haven't done much acrylics, but definitely gonna start using them too. mixing with oils at least.. mmm I just wanna paint so much..
OMG...I opened up my page today and I had 205 messages....I said in my feeble brain "What the &*%$!#$#@ and proceded to scroll. LOL you must have been up all night!! So, I have not read anything yet but I certainly will get to them....ALL, eventually. Ironic thing is that I did not draw anything significant yesterday besides the pass them alongs because I was just trying to keep up with the page....commenting, starring etc. for all the other folks. So you can imagine my surprise when I saw "205". I think I have gotten too many friends as keeping up with it all is mind boggling, and I have even stopped thanking each and every visitor, commenter and star giver. Do you get to everyone all the time?

Well thank you so very much for all of your invested time and I'm sure I will enjoy looking at it all!
Hi gerbear,I'm so glad you like your teddybear =).Thanks again my friend for all your cheers ans comments ;)

Thanks for the cheers - hope you dont mind me adding you :)
I'm glad you liked it :) Actually I find them really cute.. you can find about all of them here http://www.metacafe.com/channels/JoVo/
Yes,Ger, 2 people I knew and 4 I was acquainted with. Two of that four were father and son.
Can I make a suggestion? On the Add a Fish drawing, why not add one of your favorite Teddy Bears in a Diver's suit? Or a starfish stuck to the side of the tank?
Ha ha! Thanks for the comments and cheers! As you can probably tell by now, I am an avid LOTR (not to mention Elijah Wood) fan. XD It was two for the price of one in this case, I picked my favorite actor from my favorite movies! I almost had the chance to meet Elijah in March, but he canceled right after we bought the tickets to ORC! D:> Sadness and despair! He had to go to Europe at the time. On the bright side, the other actors made up for his not being there entirely. I'm glad you liked my sketchfu of Frodo and Sam, they are wonderful as characters and actors. It's so funny to listen to them interact and tease each other. XD
