My pencil and Amanda

One of my hobbies is creating graphics for equestrian advertising. I don't think I'm so bad at that. Admittedly, a lot of the work is done by the computer, but you need a certain amount of skill to harmoniously arrange and combine colors, photos and graphics. Painting, on the other hand, isn't really my thing, I'm really not good at that. But I think I can use the pencil quite well. During the time of the Corona-related LockDown, I had some time to draw a few pictures. They are not perfect, but I'll show you a small selection here anyway:

Even if they are not masterpieces - they are just the attempts of a hobby draftsman - to do all the drawings were great fun. But I have a request for you: Please remember, these pictures are my property! Please be so fair and do not download or copy them or take screenshots of these images!

"I'm so grateful to know you and to call you my friend. You are in a class of your own and truly are one of the greats. A brilliant actress, an unassuming TALENTED artist. A leading lady who inspires everyone around her and who is so passionate about the sisterhood and supporting her colleagues and people. You are quite simply the real deal. One star!!"

"Amanda; the myth created for Doris Day is Amanda. She's warm, the camera loves her, and she can take a scene that really should never be released and make it sound like a diamond!"

"...I don't have any particular stories. She's just always...she has this ability to deal with people...she's just amazing! She has a strength and a personable quality that comes with that kind of light. I can't get over her and so happy to see her direct. I think we need more women like Amanda directing. Because they understand, they've been there, because they know more than anyone else!"

"I'm a fan of Amanda Tapping. In fact, I'm a HUGE fan of Amanda Tapping. And I'm not the only one. No, I'm not talking about all those Samantha Carter followers out there. I'm talking about pretty much everyone who's had the pleasure of working with Amanda over the years. She is immensely talented, always professional and just plain adorable.”
