Howdy Mel!

Welcome back to earth ;). Glad to see you had a blast, can't wait to hear about it. I checked out the photographs of the people; you captured a great likeness in your sketches. I love the elephant you can almost feel his personality. Keep up the great work.

Toodles,
Heather

Mel,

I went back to 2004 to view your first blog entry and went through several months of your life and art. It was something to watch your art develop in leaps and bounds. I think I've got a few more months to go and I'm wondering how it's all going to work out. If you have just returned from space, perhaps I can go into your blog future. Hold on . . . yep, I can see it, just as I expected, more great art.

Your sketches are brilliant, as always. That link you got for your people skething sure seems interesting. I've been looking for something like that. Thanks

Urban Barbarian said...

Um... Way too many good sketches here to even contemplate! The Melmade blog contains too many ingredients to deal with. This post contains over a month's worth of posts!

...wow! Do you ever sleep?

You never cease to amaze me Mel, not only with the shear volume of drawings, but the quality and variation of theme is amazing.
