Do you think everyone is capable of doing something like this? I find astounishing what people can do with their hands. I just saw this one here Drawings Paintings Prints
I really would like to learn something like this... Following your posts, everyone should do it.

Gorgeous painting, - I think roses are one of the most difficult flowers to paint, but you really did them beautifully. Love the strong contrasts.
