			<description><![CDATA[Hi There,<br />
    I haven't got much confidence in art, but I am told I'm quite good. I think I should start practicing more. But is it better to start on the background of a picture, or of the main items in it? <br />
Thanks<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Recently we took our two small dogs to the sea for a week. It was great fun and they really enjoyed it. Its's so funny because as soon as they got onto the sand they both went wild. I remember one day I hadn't even let them off the leads, and they were running round and round chasing each other, mean while I was getting more and more tangled!! It just kept laughing, and couldn't get hold of them. Oh the adventures in the world of dogs!<br />

Dark as jet and ginger<br />
For you to play with whilst you may,<br />
and care for when they linger.<br />
But with you, 'til I call them back,<br />
take care of them for me.<br />
Their characters will gladden you,<br />
And should their stay be brief<br />
You'll have their lovely memories<br />
As solace for you grief.<br />
I cannot promise they will stay<br />
Since all from earth return,<br />
But there are many things down there<br />
I want these cats to learn,<br />
I,ve looked this wide world over<br />
In My search for owners true<br />
and from the throngs that crowd life lines<br />
I have selected you,<br />
Now will you give them all your love<br />
not think the labour vain<br />
nor hate Me when I come to call<br />
and take them back again?<br />
I thought that I heard you say<br />
"Yes Lord that is no problem,<br />
For all the joy these cats will bring<br />
the risk of grief we'll run.<br />
We'll play with them with happiness,<br />
We'll love them while we may.<br />
And for the happiness we've known<br />
For ever grateful stay"<br />

			<description><![CDATA[Ask most artists what they think is the most important aspect to painting and most of them will probably say colour. You may be very surprised to know that it isn't even number 2 !!! If you do not get the values right, colour will not work as it should.<br />
What then is value ? Value refers to the whole range of tones between black and white. When you get the values right, even the most bazarre colous can work. <br />
This is VERY important. A painting <span style="text-decoration: underline;">must</span> have a dominant value, whether the dominant colour is light, medium or dark. <br />
