Two roads diverged in a wood, and I--I took the one less traveled by, And that has made all the difference.

I love the colors of the background and the silhouettes. It's moving to me.

This is a nice silhouette. I like that you showed hands reaching over the ocean to let go of the butterfly. The background and everything amazes me.

I absolutely love this! I love how it can be as simple as a butterfly, or you can go into depth about what the picture may mean. It's awesome!

Yes, you should try more silhouettes- you seem to have a knack for them! I love this one- recently I've been very into butterflies!

At some point you've got to stop looking up at the sky, or one of these days you'll look back down and see that you've floated away too.

This is super amazing. It's one of my favorites on here. I love it.

Thanks everyone! Sorry the resolution isn't all that great-- It's really difficult to take a picture of a painting! LOL! I can't wait to make another -- I will this summer :D

Of course! But unforunately, it won't be for a while. School doesn't give me enough time during the day to do art, and since I have no art class, I can't make anything during school either.
