Description
Sorry I haven't been doing more work. But honestly right now Its even hard for me to post this one. I am disgusted, discouraged, disappointed, and pretty much in general ticked off. Life has a way of kicking you where it hurts every time you turn around. I am usually one that always looks on the bright side and never lets things get me down for very long. But damn, sometimes you would think enough is enough. There is not one thing that has brought me to this, but a collection of many many things.
I know this might be more then most care to know, but for those that have wondered where Ive been and what's going on, this is a small explanation. I don't want sympathy, I am just telling the facts and how I feel.
I would like to say thank you to those people that have been there and support my work.
I would also like to thank the most important person in the world to me. He has be a light at the end of the tunnel many times, a inspiration, a kick in the but, and most of all the love of my life. Janne you are my world, without you I am lost.
So onto the artwork..
Trying a different style with my work. Trying to get more of a painted look to it.
Painted in Painter and Photoshop with Intuos 2 A4 tablet.

I regret to feel that you are sad. Close that dark door Gina and open another different one and contemplate as the sun it glows, the beauty of a flower, the smile of a child, and that a new life reborns every day. You same he makes it in each one of their images, in each one of their wonderful works. Courage!! Sorry for my English.

wow, this is stunning work. As is this image. Goodness me you do such amazing work!! Vote from me.
Incredible scene. You are a master! Excellent work again. VOTE!
Gina, you are probably the most pure hearted person I know, so when I read something like this it astounds me, since you would never expect YOU to have life kick you in the face. Mind you, terrible things happen to the best people sometimes, it seems. Just know you have friends who love you (not only Janne, ;)) and who believe in you 100%. This painting is fantastic (which seems a totally inadequate description, even at that). Biiiiig hugs
Awesome masterpiece!!!! Gorgeous work on this one.
I can relate, I,ve lost before, someone who I thought I could,nt make without either,but the only thing I could turn to was my work,it's hard but the time,patience and love I put into it,IT WON'T LET YOU DOWN. hell take a break,totally do something different,learn the guitar,go ice skating any thing to take your mind off of negative things.You're one artist I just love,and remember that!thank you please remember everyone here at some time will go through the same as you. your friend Ron.
not sure whether you're ticked off at things going on in the community..? Anyway, onto the art - you're the best and it always brings a light to my day when I get a notification that you've posted. Don't stay away too long:)
I'm glad you have someone there to bring you forward when other things bring you down!! From your artwork and talent, you seem like a strong person, so I know this too will pass. Continue to throw yourself into what you do best and always keep your head up!! Janne is your rock for sure, else you wouldn't find the strength to try something new!! This is amazing. Its like going back in time. Beautiful work Gina! Continue to bless us with your work!! Thank you

Awww honey :( I know I'm late but I still wanna tell you I am your friend and you can count on me whenever and for whatever you need... talk to me if you need someone to hear you :) I sincerely hope things are better now for you! Love Ya
Please try to focus on positive thoughts and enjoy the positive natural world a bit if you are able. Your image has such a light skin tone it is seductive. I rate your masterpiece excellent and voted for it.
You are a wonderful artist...beyond compare...life is always a surprise but we must take life by the harness and try to make it the best we can. Don't ever let life control you. Also Jesus can make anything better, really, do not worry. By the way if we didn't have bad times, rough times, difficult experiences, then we would not know when things are going wonderfully and we would not appreciate them. Hugs!
