Comments:Hi Murray! Thanks a million for registering for the ArtisTTree Sneak Peek. Very cool of you, as one artist to another. I really admire your work very much, including the colored ones...and isn't Acrylic ink the greatest thing?!
Well ArtisTTree will be launching within the week and I'm so excited to share it with my fellow artists and our public! In the first month we'll be 'beta-testing' the site to work out the complexities and gather feedback, so for the launch things will still be pretty bare-bones. I hope you'll check it all out and see the great potential there!
You've got a very dynamic website going, by the way, I followed the webring far and wide...and what a great resource your drawing lessons are!
Thanks very much! Cheers,
Jess (ArtisTTree webhost).

Comments:I must say you have a really enchanting webpage, Murray! Your works that I have now seen on this page inspire me. The fact that you are self-taught also encourages me on my drawing and painting hobby. I'm only sixteen at the moment, and very eager to learn more - and boy, is there a LOT more to learn! :) Well, I guess I'm in no hurry yet.

I too have found pointillism a very rewarding method of drawing. It's my favourite thing after oil painting. The texture always forms such a lively surface! I especially liked the picture of the mountain lion (?). You seem to do beautiful featurings of animals otherwise too I think (or maybe it's just that those drawings were the ones that caught my eye). Keep up the good work!

My own production is still very small, and perhaps not even the quality to be published (even in the web). I have plans, though! Maybe someday... ;)

Best wishes,
Mia (Finland)

I'll be back to visit again from time to time to see your new work. The site listed above isn't my own but that of the Federation of Canadian Artists/Calgary Chapter.

Comments:Hi Artdude,

It's Zarathustra from the drawing forum. Great website you have, and some excellent drawings - I don't know where you find the patience for stippling!
I read your bio - out of curiosity what's your guitar setup, and what sort of style music do you play? I have quite a few stringed instruments, but I'm best with an electric guitar - haven't gigged for a while now though.

I also noticed you're big on the RPG video games - I don't know if it's quite your type of thing, but I'm currently immersed in Final Fantasy X on the PS2!

Gavin.

Comments:Hi Murr,

You've got a great talent and a very good site, I'm also of
the mind set that graphite and ink drawings don't get the
right amount of respect from the art world... You might try
visiting a site called wet canvas and post some of your work
it should bring you more visitors to your website...

I just wanted to let you know that I think you have a real
talent... hope you stay with the art work.

Larry.

Comments:I saw a link to your site at WetCanvas. I'm so happy I found some real art. I agree that drawing is underrated now and I told about it there. Lines and shades of gray are a great power. I've found two very important things: you use different techniques, you use different ideas for your drawings. Many people use only one medium and limit themselves. Or just draw only still-lifes, only landscapes etc. I like different concepts in different drawings.
I'm very surprised that your work doesn't have a great success yet. I thought that in USA and Canada people can make money out of everything :)) Sorry, if my English was poor :).
