The Eternal Flame

[Narrow Way Knapper]

Anyone else try to copy a point with water colors. This is my first attempt. It's a Classic Hayes point from the Riley site in Arkansas. It's not exact by any means, but I had fun trying.

Very nice work. They way you represented the flaking is fantastic and the bit of blue in the blade really ties it into the background. All of my attempts with water color always come out looking like mud. That's why I stick with Acrylic. It's much more forgiving.

I remember well the wonderful whale you painted and posted when first joined!

Thank you AC! Feel free to post some of your work in this thread.

Nice job for your first attempt. I never tried myself .

[Artifascination]

I recognize that point. What a beauty! Good job on a first attempt.

This is my friend Amy’s india ink rendition of some of Rio’s artifacts he posted sometime during 2020.

She doesn’t collect rocks or artifacts, and generally paints birds and sea life, but I like her landscapes best:


I can draw a tiny bit with colored chalk and pastels, but water-color supposed to be most difficult of all mediums to master…..so big kudos Narrow Way! (Betcha Hal got some tips!)

[Cecilia]

Yes, this non-master once did picture of dog that easier imagined as beautiful horse!

Every now and then ( same as points) you find a painting that has that special beauty, that indescribable something, that pizzazz...I’m lookin at it,,Bravo Caleb👏👏👏

Thanks Hal! I have a feeling you would like any painting with an arrowhead in it. I mean who wouldn't right. 😉
