J T Gray Posted 22 December , 2004 Share Posted 22 December , 2004 I'll stop posting for a bit Please do, some of us suffer from art failure and you make me very green! Seriously, no offence meant, you should get a web site for them - you obviously have a serious talent (I don't know what art is, but I know what I like, and I like what you do!). Merry Christmas!

Soren Posted 22 December , 2004 Author Share Posted 22 December , 2004 Soren, That is a very kind gesture. We have all been enjoying a remarkable exhibition on this thread. Thankyou for sharing your work with us. Are you planning an exhibition sometime? May I suggest that Pals who make use of Soren's work in their Christmas e-greetings spare a thought, and a small sum, for the running of the Forum by making a donation. Tin rattling over. Thanks again Soren Hello again Kate, There may be something happening shortly, regarding sales/seperate area for my drawings. With due respect paid from any sales to the forum in way of donation per picture, I am just at present sorting out reasonable prices! I think you are right regarding a donation to the Forum for any Xmas e-greeting usage of images. Merry Christmas to all and many thanks to everyone for making me believe in my drawings again.

Soren Posted 23 December , 2004 Author Share Posted 23 December , 2004 DEUTSCH Music: Franz Xaver Gruber, 1818 Words: Joseph Mohr, 1816/1818 Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht, Alles schläft; einsam wacht Nur das traute hochheilige Paar. Holder Knabe im lockigen Haar, Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh! Schlaf in himmlischer Ruh! Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht, Hirten erst kundgemacht Durch der Engel Halleluja, Tönt es laut von fern und nah: Christ, der Retter ist da! Christ, der Retter ist da! Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht, Gottes Sohn, o wie lacht Lieb' aus deinem göttlichen Mund, Da uns schlägt die rettende Stund'. Christ, in deiner Geburt! Christ, in deiner Geburt! Heute singt man nur die Strophen 1, 6 und 2 (oben) von der originellen Joseph-Mohr-Version (1816). ENGLISH Music: Franz Xaver Gruber, 1818 Words: John Freeman Young, 1863 Silent night, holy night All is calm all is bright 'Round yon virgin Mother and Child Holy infant so tender and mild Sleep in heavenly peace Sleep in heavenly peace Silent night, holy night, Shepherds quake at the sight. Glories stream from heaven afar, Heav'nly hosts sing Alleluia; Christ the Savior is born Christ the Savior is born Silent night, holy night, Son of God, love's pure light. Radiant beams from Thy holy face, With the dawn of redeeming grace, Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth Jesus, Lord, at Thy birth Today only verses 1, 6 and 2 (above) from the original Joseph Mohr version (1816) are sung.

AndrewThornton Posted 8 January , 2005 Share Posted 8 January , 2005 Having received a new watercolour set for Christmas, I have decided to start painting again after a break of a few years. At the moment I have completed five paintings depicting the dress of The Royal Dragoons during their long history. Here is a Corporal of the 1st (Royal) Dragoons as he would have appeared in 1918: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soren Posted 8 January , 2005 Author Share Posted 8 January , 2005 Hello All! Having given you a little break, I thought that I'd bore you with some more of my out pouring..... Any criticism/comments regarding any technical oversights with the uniforms/Vehicles glad fully accepted! I tend to just let it flow, so therefore don't really get bogged down in detail, if however something is glaring at you I'd appreciate guidance 1st go at a bus/transport Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soren Posted 8 January , 2005 Author Share Posted 8 January , 2005 Worried these might seem off topic... just thought I'd show you what my mainstream stuff is like.... I feel that the drawings are still haunted by the Great War Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
