Umm- out of my rooms window looking over the lake towards the party cabin (but looking to the left a little)? Who did that? That is awesome. | ||

WE HAVE A WINNER Okay, Sandblast, guess we're gonna have to invite you back again. You have indeed correctly identified our contest location! Now, as to your question. I wish I could take credit...but that would not be honest...or safe. My pillion, Ms. Moto Foto (aka Char Hoffman) is the actual culprit. An aside to FB, who e-mailed me that his hand was raised...you don't qualify for the contest...so sorry. | ||
| Dino |
BTW, in case anyone is curious as to the medium, it is a pastel. | ||

An aside to FB, who e-mailed me that his hand was raised...you don't qualify for the contest...so sorry. does this mean i'm not invited back for Oktoberfast 2005???  ps, i concur with Sandblast: AWESOME! FB  | ||
| Dino |
As in most contests of this sort there is a prohibition against participation by persons involved in the organization, or their relatives. Again, sorry. But if Denise says it's okay, you can come. | ||

Incredible Char!!!!Do you do people??I have that Original of Ferris's Belly!!!All joking aside...If you ever want to sell one of the Oktoberfast creations give me a call.Hope you and the Dino guy have a Wonderful Christmas and the BEST New Year! | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
I have that Original of Ferris's Belly!!! yeah? just wait'll you see what Corso's done to it... | ||
| Dino |
Ebear - If you want to discuss belly portraits, you'll have to do it directly with Char. I'm steering clear on that one.  She does sell paintings (pastels and watercolors), but to date she's only sold pastels locally 'cause we haven't figured out how to ship 'em. If you're interested, e-mail me and I'll have Char give you some more info. Just got a call from Char...she got home from grocery shopping and one of our small emergency back-up dogs had gotten up onto a table in her art room and walked around on a couple of completed pastels. (not the one above) I'm not going home til late tonight, methinks. (Message edited by dino on December 21, 2004) | ||

 Sorry my friend, I had to share with all! | ||
| Jerry_haughton |

| Pdxs3t |
Yes, that was a big belly, I mean softball you tossed me. PS- Did you get your package yet? (Message edited by pdxs3t on December 21, 2004) | ||

Aw, that's nothin...  Yeah, I know, it's offensive, truly tasteless, etc., but it's been on my hard drive for a year and this is the first time it's been relevant to anything! Probably the last time, too... Merry Christmas, all! rt | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
wow, hard to imagine how we went from one of Char's gorgeous pastels to...er...uh...THAT! | ||

That cow thing is disgusting! And I not easily disgusted. | ||
| Dino |
Okay time to get this thread back onto a higher plane again! Here are two more of Char's works from Oktoberfast 2004. The location of the second image is obvious...but what about this one? (pastel)  (watercolor)  | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
The location of the second image is obvious...but what about this one? YVR?? nice work, Char, VERY nice! | ||
| Dino |
YVR?? We have a winner! | ||
| Jerry_haughton |
We have a winner! hardly seems fair, since i mapped out the route and all. on the other hand... ...what do i win? | ||
| Dino |
How about a big kiss?! And I suggest that you collect on that from Denise, 'cause, to be perfectly honest, you're just not my type. | ||
| Sandblast |
Hey I forget where "YVR" is- that looks like where you guys killed that poor little squirrel though, then Unibear killed his friend  . Dino- think your wife will sue me if I set that as my desktop backround??? | ||
| Dino |
Sandblast - YVR is Yokohl Valley Road. That particular scene is just starting up the hill shortly after turning onto YVR from Balch Park Road, just a few miles north of Springville. Char says she'd be honored to have you use it as your desktop. You'll need a higher resolution image though. What size do you want? I'll e-mail it to you. | ||
| Dino |
I would encourage anybody and everybody to post to this thread...even if you don't have anything to say. Let's get those bellies into the archives! | ||
| Sandblast |
Thanks Char! (And Dino). Uh- Whatever size you think would look good on a normal size monitor would be awesome. I really love that picture. | ||
| Dino |
Shawn - Check your e-mail. | ||
