g'day Nathan, well done...

Water painting too! Oh my! I can't draw a stick man if my life depended on it. Good thing I have an eye and a camera, lmbo!
Beautiful work. I see that is where your daughter gets her talent!

WOW you paint too..... your very talented Mr Smith...... great lighting, shading, colours... blends great with your border.... very well done

Marvellous work and well done,Nathan.

Well another hidden facet of Nathan, I wonder how many more you have?? Every time it is stunning, continue to suprise us, it is very suiting to the eyes... :0))!

This is a watercolor??? Incredable... Talent runs deep in this family.

*sigh* Boy do I feel outclassed I can barely type, I constantly look through the wrong end of my camera, I can't even draw (not even water out of a tap). Very nice Nathan

Kemosabe;
I had no idea of the artistic variety, of talent, that you posses. You are truly a wonder. Photography, design and now painting. Along with all of this talent you are also a left and right brained person. The left side of the brain is the logical side. From the position that you hold, your left side MUST be strong, The right side is what we usually see. I am truly in the company of a great one.How does this work? Do you have a little switch built into the top of your head? When you want to become creative you reach up and switch to the right side and when a logic question is in need of an answer do you then switch it to left side?
It was just yesterday that I had a chance to download your frames. They are wonderful. I will look at them in a few days and get back to you. Whatever mode that you are in it is a 10 from me

You are very talented, Nathan..!! Great painting...and presentation !

Hey! Is this the same guy from Fractal Mountain? He is, huh? Well than, no wonder it's a top job.

I am enjoying your framing work ... and this, from one who usually objects to frames (black border crop jobs that just take and don't give back)

but .... were you REALLY sitting there painting? ... in the cold? ... as 'fotobob' suggested, there must be a switch on top of your head ... that switches from LOGICAL to CREATIVE ... because a logical man would say ... "ouch! .. it's cold"

and then proceed to photograph it and paint in front of the fire .. at home

Hi Nathan, wonderfully done, and yes, I agree with Fotobob, I am sure you have the propensity to shift from left to right side of brain, which ever is needed at the time electronically (a play on words)! You are very talented and as I have said before, isn't it too bad we can't share our gifts osmotically with everyone! Sincerely, Marilyn

Thank you - all of you. You've been so kind with your comments. The switch on the top of my head - that's a good idea. I wish I had one. Most of the time the two halves compete with each other. I envy people like my daughter, Rachael, who seem to effortlessly switch to the right side so completely. Maybe someday.

wow i thought it was a photo in the thumbnail!!very nice painting, you are very talented!!

wow! great image Nathan, I didnt know that you yourself did paintings as well! Never ceases to amaze me. Great talents up in that head, youre an inspiration in art, amazing painting Nathan, well done, well done.

Show off ;) Nice job. Love the border job too.

Now I know where Racheal gets it from..

Completely imaculate. i wouldnt have known it wasnt a photo if you hadnt said. very nice.
good work. :)

You said, "hope you enjoy". Very very much, thanks for sharing Nathan. Cheers Al.

Thank you!

Great work! High marks from me!

Nice drawing. Weak border. You should stick to allowing the painting speak for itself with a discreet signature in the corner.
