Many thanks Sebastian for featuring my landscape in Digital Dreamscapes. I'm so happy to show this one again....I was able to draw the figures digitally...a first with my work. So pleased to have this notice!

Love how the two tiny figures looking out on the world, give perspective and impression of the vastness of the nature around them, Fantastic! FL
Nancy Kane Chapman replied:
I took courses in Chinese brush painting, and there was always one or two figures, tiny ones...at the base of a huge waterfall, in a small boat on a vast river. That figure is you, the viewer. I hope to continue with this idea! Thanks, Gun.

This is so magical, Nancy.....the vast expanse, the wonderful play of light and shade, the lyrical colors and the tiny figures that add such depth and perspective to the whole scene.....just love this work! L/f/Pinned.

Thanks, Fei. I just taught myself how to add people in my landscapes....there have always been accidental "visitors" but this was intentional.

Thanks so very much, Cia for featuring "We Saw The Sun Rise" in Digital Art and Photography for a Simple Imagination. This was unusual to include visitors to my dream. I loved seeing the dog be there too..to see dawn!
