reference: http://www.helnwein.de/werke/home/home.html I was inspired to do a study from one of his paintings (oil and acrylic on canvas) after being directed to his site from a link that zep left on one of my drawings. This guy rocks my boat.

Helnwein...Helnwein...:O YES! I know who he is! I read a good book about him, and his paintings. It was him who did the medical pictures, right? And those images of famous people that were so dark you could only see in just the right light. This is goooood, Cindy, goooood.

That's some pretty cool stuff, zep... once again. (and thanks, ya'll, it was fun and I learned alot)

Wow, that's damn nifty.

Thanks

Sometimes I try to refrain from commenting on your work because it seems like I just follow you around and wait for you to draw something new and great like this so I can look at it. (Don't tell anyone, but I do.) This reminded me of my Daddy's old worn out wrangler shirts that he wears to work around the ranch that I steal when they get old and soft. I like this picture alot and I had to say so.

kejoco (Mar 10, 2005)

I think the fact that you left the technique a little loose works really well with the subject
looks awesome dan
i'm sort of like dba, don't comment on all your pictures even though most of them are awesome because i feel i'll become redundant and none of the comments would mean anything

ref of the ref...

dorothyblueeyes (Apr 19, 2015)

you use the other side of the brain? you mean, just take a picture, and view it very objectively, minus any meaning to the picture? your brain just photographs it literally?

Teapot (Apr 19, 2015)

It results in forcing you to see more accurately what you're looking at rather than drawing a preconceived notion of what something looks like. Everyone does that unconsciously. I'm sure you can get 'Drawing on the Right Side of the Brain' by Betty Edwards from your local library. http://www.amazon.com/The-Drawing-Right-Side-Brain/dp/0874774241

You know what I mean, featherperson... lol.. it's pleasing, it's just not.. pretty. Thanks Zep, I had never viewed any of that artists' work, and mine certainly isn't of his skill level... it must be the blue tones. The painting I saw was totally cool... I'm a fan now.

zep (Mar 8, 2005)

ok...maybe the blue tones, and this man it´s amazing isn´t he?, take a look of his installations, i have the opportunity to see one over chicago, was simply awesome!!

featherstone (edited Mar 8, 2005)

featherperson, lol well no... men are not "pretty"... lol.... they are... hmm.... uh.... sexy! but... only if they have a brain too :D

davincipoppalag (Mar 9, 2005)

Another incredibly interesting subject from Cindy.. these are such fun.

very nice!! I love it! Love the background and the way you colored the hell boy! Keep up the good work!

Childlike_Vampire (Mar 6, 2005)

I can see how smooth the bg was at the end of the animation. Wow great picture Mazi! The left horn seems a lil off but I can't tell why, and I'm probably wrong, lol. My favorite part is the skyline you have going back there. :P

davincipoppalag (Mar 6, 2005)

This is a good one mazi. I likeyoiur perspective and the coloration is well done.

Aubrey (Mar 6, 2005)

Never did see that movie. This is cool though. I like the skyline as well, it's really a neat pic overall.

misterjimsan (Dec 29, 2004)

this a WIP for a friend that will become a part of the cover for his next album his band is coming out with, it's inspired by someone else but he liked the contradictory idea and image of a famous political figure doing an uncharacteristic thing. i'm sure there are some relevancies or deeper meanings can be found, but whatever, assuming you can figure out who this man is. the older members of this board should be able to get it (also assuming i drew this well enough for him to be recognizable)

as always, criticism, input, even some new ideas are welcome before i finish this up

YAY! Finished! AWESOME! *gasp gasp* I love how well this turned out. Im glad to see that you finaly put those last crucial touches to it. I bet you this gets showcased.

PolythenePam (Mar 4, 2005)

"No, no, The BEATLES, not The WHO!" Hehe, Davinci.

Knockoff (Mar 8, 2005)

This is good, but i'm disapointed in you. This one seems a bit blurry, and you always used to draw the most clearest drawings.

Proynov_Misho (Mar 8, 2005)

haha, good sense of humor

lol at myself up there lol
this sucks to say, but it now reminds me of when I was balling my eyes out once and this guy said, "don't worry, your eggs will hatch"... and I was like, "wtf does that mean"???! lol

QTgillie (Mar 15, 2008)

this is amazing. I love everything about it, the title, the idea, the colors, the execution and the composition.
