hello, i am new to this forum, but have been reading the other topics and especially looking at the other art work, which i have fascinating. your techniques, colours, composition and, at times, the whimsical feel of the pieces.

i am a cartoonist and after a coming through a life threatening illness have started putting ink to paper again. for 4 years i was in too much physical pain to even pick up a pencil or hold a book.

these are what i call philosophical toons. they look at human experiences and the bigger question. i would be interested in your feedback of the toons posted below. cheers.

for some reason i cannot post up an image, nor can i get the link to work properly. so, for those who can take the time and are curious, just look up
"fluid ink" on face book. i have a page with my work on there.

cheers.

thanks belle - i am trying to post a new toon, once a week. thank you for inviting other people to join. after a sustained illness, my confidence over my work has had the wind knocked out of it....so people stating they like my work is the best 'medicine' i could receive.

Hi Sparky...wow...I am sorry to hear that because of your illness for a long time you were unable to create. I think but the sounds of your philosophical toons, this affected you more then your illness, or was your creativity a result of your illness.

You have searched very deep within your soul to share your 'visual' diary with us. What words would be written in a diary from your thoughts you have illustrated.

I absolutely LOVE your humour, your thoughts, the ideas etc and I have shared with some of my Facebook friends who would appreciate such work.

I love your work, I have alot of respect for cartoonist, as I think it requires a hell of alot of talent to make something funny, and get a really nice finish
