| Ummmmmmmmmm..........I got think of a name for this artwork. OH, how about Crazy Go-cart!written by ERIKA616 | | Hey! I will be making another one of these awesome gargoyles out of clay! So, keep checking you email for updates on my page.written by ERIKA616 | | Surrealism is something that is real, but you won't see it that often. The scenes/patterns in my artwork are the ocean and the sky. I am most happy with the starfish that I drew because it is colorful. If I could change something in my artwork I would change my dolphin because I rushed through it.written by GIAVANNA18 |
