<p style="text-align: center;"><em>I love these creatures, when I went to the Wellington Zoo a few years back now, I so wanted to get the hands on experience with the Cheetahs.</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>But I was gutted as I couldn't afford it at the time it was NZ$159.00 for 20-30mins only,</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>If I had that I would have jumped on it cos you only get one chance at a experience like that,I was surprised,they are larger than I originally thought...</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>I also loved the Savannah Seval cat & woah are they also beautiful..</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>So I decided to take photo's & then gain others online and at some point paint from these later instead..See these below ...</em></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Inspired by one of my clients and the TV series 'Father Ted' - 'Father Jack' look-a-like aka 87yr old Tony,[ his permission is given to share photo] , I spend many hours with this guy,hes still alive hes now 89yrs,born in England and was a ships cook back in the 1950's & claimed hes almost traveled the world, even through Panama & the Suez Canal, he told me he even went up the Nile once and recalls standing on the deck witnessing the great wonder of the world the Pyramids of Gaiza, passed by ever so slowly as the sun set behind them, it was the best visuals hes seen in his entire life it was surreal to him.. he just didn't realise just how large they really were....</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Also he recalled having one encounter with pirates in the Caribbean, he said the Captain of the ship handed over a crate of Brandy to get past them, he said the crew wernt impressed however as they lost their precious nightly booze,for hot toddies....there was no thought about their lives being taken though lol..I tell yah I find them..he kept me captivated for days.. so he had loads of tales to tell, we'd laugh a lot,he loved the TV programme Father Ted and I told him he reminded me of Father Jack,he couldn't see it himself so I told him I'd draw him and show him the comparison, he loved it,said now can I have a drink of beer!...</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>My sketching work is mediocre where being an artist is concerned, there is no definition placed on art,it just is what it is to me and me only... outward expression or perception of the depth within ones soul placed onto paper in what ever media one chooses to project,and one has preference to subjects or types of format used to project it, be that pencil sketching,acrylic paints,oil paints, water colour paints,charcoal,pastel,metals,dusts,materials,clay's,glues etc and so on..what ever is part of ones expression outwards & works..</em></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><em>Wax eyes would play in my fushia bush,every day catching midges and my cat Orik found them,he hurt one,all around its nose... but I got it off him & put it in a cardboard box over night, I half expected it to die of shock over night,least if it did I felt Id given it a warm place to pass away in peace...surprised next morning it was lively as..</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>So I put some Maori kumarahou healing ointment on its wounds & placed it in my aviary with my doves & nursed it back to health over a few weeks.. then released it when it was better, but while I had it I was then inspired to draw them in the tree outside my window..working off these photo's I took of it below..</em></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><em><span class="timestamp"><strong>October 14, 2023</strong> - I h</span>ad a go at using these water colour pencils for the first time, wasn't easy for me using a different medium & process after all these years, and I'd always used liquid paints, set in a sequence of techniques also Id learnt over the years of trial & error, now I was sitting with a pencil in my hand wondering how to get the same format in my picture...but I wanted to paint the seahorse I'd found on the beach up the Coromandel coast, but not seeing one alive I also had to go source a image from google to get a colour pallet to start with and then I added to it at will.....strange creatures yet so pretty...how did I do critique invited?</em></p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><em>I think you have play around with these to learn ways to use them,watch a few other people using them on video too maybe..I'm so used to just taping & wetting my paper and letting the paints flow on the paper then blotting, but you can still do this with these but its ore controlled ..I dont think my pencils are the highest of quality but as they are so expensive I'll wait till I've mastered them before spending more on a different better quality set, your looking at around NZ$160.00 for a real good set here...seems a lot just for pencils..</em></p>

<p style="text-align: center;"><em>But I've gone over the top of everything with a much darker blue with liquid blues, to cover the lighter blue as that blue pencil paint I had wasn't dark enough at all even adding black to it,you can still see some of it but its blended well.. I dont think it was ever gonna happen no matter how much black I added over the top.. I kept seeing a sky type of blue hue which I water blotted out almost as it was running into his tummy too ... but I'm still not finished yet though, I still have to work on his other colours more, change his tummy colours more and his back wing feathers,oh and his legs as well... so working on it more..wait for more updates tomorrow..I'm happy with it so far but he looks more like a blue sparrow rather than a Eurasian Blue- tit right now, lol but wait he will come together, while trying not to over work it...</em></p>

<p>"Everyone's ready?"<br/>Oropher was inspecting his men, the army which was preparing to march to Mordor. How many of them would perish? He had no idea. It was never a predictable thing....<br/>"Thranduil?! What the hell do you have in mind?" Oropher shouted angrily. "I told you to stay. Someone must take care of the kingdom."<br/>"You need everyone, you know it."<br/>"I need everyone to do their job, Thran," he said, a bit calmer. "Including you, my son."<br/>"I can fight."<br/>"You can get lost more easily than your young son," said Oropher.<br/>He didn’t speak of this often. He still felt responsible that Thranduil got hit by dragon fire and became blind. The sad thing was that Thranduil was still one of the lucky ones of that great war.<br/>"I'm sorry," he said with shame. "So be it. You give me no choice."<br/>Oropher dismounted and got the rope he saw and then moved to Thranduil's elk.<br/>"Legolas!"<br/>The young elven child ran from the door to the king. Oropher gave him the rope. "Hold this."<br/>"What are you doing?" asked Thranduil, when he felt that the reins in his hands were no longer connected to the elk’s head.<br/>"Preparing to leave," said Oropher. "Legolas, take him for a walk." He mounted his horse again. "Let's go!" he yelled, and the army began to move south.</p>
<p>Thranduil ordered the elk to move forward with his legs. When he heard a cry of surprise he stopped, realising that his elk was on a rope being held by Legolas.<br/>He rolled up the reins, irritated by what had happened.<br/>"I know a nice place to walk," said Legolas, and he went to the forest, followed by the elk. Thranduil's courage in that moment evaporated. Legolas was very young, less than half of size of a full-grown elf. And if something happened, Thranduil wouldn’t ever find the way back.<br/>"Are you sure that we can go your way with an elk?" asked Thranduil.<br/>"I think so, I usually go this way with Mom."<br/>That didn't make Thranduil feel much safer, but at least that meant that they wouldn’t get lost, for Legolas knew the way very well.<br/>Legolas was having fun. He smiled, observing the forest and all its inhabitants. Greenwood was beautiful in those days.<br/>Suddenly, Legolas stopped.<br/>"What's wrong?"<br/>"Wait here," said Legolas.<br/>Thranduil heard him running away, but he soon returned.<br/>"I brought you something. Guess what it is," said Legolas.<br/>Thranduil was interested, at least a bit, so he opened his hands. Legolas gave him something... furry, soft to the touch, legged, live and... "It's a rabbit."<br/>"Yes. It's beautiful, isn't it? Such a nice, brown, friendly rabbit."<br/>Thranduil fondled the rabbit. It was nice to have it in his hands.<br/>"Legolas stop!" he ordered, when his elk started to go forward. "We can't just take the rabbit from his home. Take and put him back where you got him, okay?"<br/>"Okay."</p>
<p><br/>They got to the river. Thranduil easily noticed that by the water splashing over the rocks.<br/>"Can we stay here for a while?" Legolas asked suddenly.<br/>"What's here?"<br/>"Trees, the river, a nice shore with grass and two...three big rocks. It's a nice place."<br/>"Is there some strong root to tie a rope around?"<br/>"Yes, we're close to one."<br/>"All right. Hold the elk."<br/>Thranduil dismounted and put the reins back on. Then he followed Legolas to the root and tied the rope so the elk couldn't run away.<br/>Thranduil then sat down on the grass. Legolas went to the river and played with the rocks and water.<br/>That made Thanduil think about one thing. Legolas was often inside the palace all day, just like him. Getting him outside wasn't so easy, but he seemed completely happy now. It was because Thranduil was with him. That was what it was all about. Legolas just wanted to be with him, where he felt more safe.<br/>"Yay! I found a frog!"<br/>Thranduil knew what would happen, and sure enough he soon had a wet frog in hands. A big frog. It didn't like the dry hands. The frog jumped and chose to go back to the river on its own.<br/>"It jumped so high!" said Legolas.<br/>"Frogs have strong legs."<br/>"That one was such a nice green."<br/>"I can imagine that. I know how frogs look."<br/>"And the grass?"<br/>"Yes."<br/>"And the sun?"<br/>"That too."<br/>"The river?"<br/>"Kind of. Every river is unique."<br/>"Sad that you can't see it. The sun is shining on the water like it’s golden." Legolas sat close to Thranduil. "Will your eyes heal?"<br/>"Legolas... probably never."<br/>"I would give everything to show you this."<br/>"I wouldn’t. For there is something more precious to me that I've never seen and I really want to."<br/>"What is it?"<br/>"You."</p>

<p>--------------------------</p>
<p>Horns sounded ant Thingol the king rode into his palace with his people. They were returning from the hunt and they had a big prey. Thanks to that the king was smiling, and when giving his horse to the servants, he was giving his smile to everyone around. He was singing until that moment, he entered royal chambers. Stepping at wooden pony was enough to break his mode and king caught his leg.<br/> “Lúthien, why are your toys everywhere?” He asked. Noone answered. He shaked his head and returned pony where it belonged, careful to not step at anything else. It was advantage of children having head so close to the ground, because of that they see everything that stands on the floor.<br/> Splashing of water ensured the king that the family is home. He moved to next chamber and to the door of bathroom. In the door he stopped and smiled at both girls. Melian was right next to big tub and was bathing their daughter.<br/> “You’re home,” she said without need to see him. She knew that Thingol is smiling. “And again you forgot about the flowers.”<br/> The king sighted. “Yes, I forgot.”<br/> The queen just smiled. “Whatever, we can collect them later, together. “Would you hand me a soap?”<br/> Thingol grabbed herbal soap and gave it to Melian. Then he smiled at Lúthien. “So, how are you, our messer?”<br/> Small elfling laughed. “Dady.”<br/> The king smiled and stroked her head. “You small rebel.”<br/> “I also dealt with meeting of dwarves ambassadors, while you were hunting.”<br/> “They arrived already?”<br/> “Arrived and left.”<br/> “What did you tell them?”<br/> “Me nothing, they just lost something necessary during the way, so they left inhurry to find it before your return, in hope you won’t find out.”<br/> “OK, then I did hear nothing… what did they lose?”<br/> Melian shrugged her shoulders. “Well, they feel bad about it, but better when no one else knows about it.”<br/> “Of course.”<br/> Melian went to get a towel and carefully dried small princess, while Thingol was holding her…</p>
<p>Whatever it was the dwarves lost, they found it at the borders in care of elves, they said nothing about it. They came to the palace and bowed to the elvenking, who did the same. Then he invited them to the table and to meeting. But before they reached there, the small princess came and with curiosity she ran towards the dwarves. Before Thingol or dwarves could notice anything, princess was holding one of them by his beards. And because they were holding well at the dwarf and she was small, she wanted to climb up.<br/> Dwarf cried and began to jerk wildly, the princes was laughing and holding.<br/> Poor dwarf was whimpering: “Not the beards, not the beards!” Other dwarves were watching with fascination and Thingol with shock.<br/> Small princess wanted to held better so she caught a thin pigtail. But it was too thin and so just with her weight she ripped it off. The dwarf screamed and princess rolled away. The dwarf cursed in tradition of his people.<br/> The princess stood up, pigtail in her hand, she returned to the dwarf and gave it to him saying: “You dropped something.”<br/> The dwarves laughed and Thingol, well, he desired to be anywhere else, where he would be able to hit a wall with his head… twice.</p>
