You are all too kind. Trust me, if I can do it, anyone can. :) I wondered after I was well into this project why I didn't just print color photos and thread paint at that point. But, half the fun was learning to use the NeoColor II crayons - after coloring the portraits and then 'painting' with a watercolor brush and water, the colors just pop! Ironing then sets the color. It's a lot of fun. The eyes were difficult, especially on the Aussie who has those unusual eyes.

I absolutely marvel at the ability it takes to make this look so awsome. The eyes are the window to the soul, and you have captured them so wonderfuly. Wish I could work up the courage to try this with my two boys.
