I got pretty frustrated with this one....working from a black and white photo...I decided to take it to another program and desaturate it and it looks MUCH better that way! It's time to put it away for a little while tho....
Thanks for lookin'!

Edit/update: This is an old drawing and one of my least fav pieces...not really finished either and likely will never be.... but I'm tired of having it take up space in my WIP folder so I'm marking it up as finished and movin' on.....life is too short!!

Wow thanks dorothy! He's always looked sort of 'ghostly' to me which I'm guessing came from me trying to guess his true coloring using a black n white ref photo...when I take the color out, it's much better! appreciate y'all's comments!

nice work

Wraith (Apr 12, 2013)

Pretty cool karl! Why won't Oekaki work for me? Maybe my Bamboo tablet is too new for Oekaki?

davincipoppalag (Apr 12, 2013)

shouldn't be.. try uninstalling java and reinstalling a new edition

karl (Apr 12, 2013)

or try reverting your java to an older version. i did this and was able to start drawing again, on a mac reverting from java 7 to 6. heres the link if you are on a mac also

yeah, guys, it does, doesn't it? Sorry, Pawille; would bracing it with your left hand, help it? I've had to do that, get some support.so it won't shake so much.I even practice with the left, in case the right goes Pooh someday. (They said Monet had his paint-brush tied to his hand, at the end, so he kept painting,)

one of the EphRON sisters just died, you know, the writers? One of them wrote this great essay, on turning 60 to 65, and she told how her life-long friend got a lump on her tonque, or throat, and she was dead in a year.

It was in" Vogue magazine ". it was A great article, and she told the reality, of being 60 yrs. old: reality! no sugar-coating the subject. that was the best, realistic true piece I've ever read on the subject. and it. was in a fashion magazine. (it was a couple years ago,l can look it up; wish I could upload it.it might be online under "Vogue articles," or "Nora EphRon; or just Ephron sisters".

But that article really was honest-and excellent writing, (my-therapist had the best line: "Old age is not for sissys",}I hope you. both feel, and get better, no matter what it is. l could tell you real stories, of people .| Know, who doctors expected to die, years ago, and they're still alive and kicking. I guess doctors don't know everything.:)

Dot I am ok just going through a lot now. My comma doesn't work on my keyboard so don't mind run-on sentences... My father had a total knee replacement and is in a hospital bed in our family room here.. he wanted to recover at home and it's been a lot of work for me along with my son who may be sick today.. well as of last night anyway..so it's up/down up/down the stairs and off my ass... I ran out of pain meds about four days ago and the leg and back really started hurtin again from all I'm doing (taking care of my dog who's having seizures and 3 cats as well)..so anyway.. went to the dr. last night and he said I need to start thinking about having an operation since I can't handle doing that much anymore without pain... and showed me how much my vertebrae had moved within my spine and recommended an operation... what is next.. I mean c'mon!

thanks dorothy, looks like a lot of us are going through a hard time, I am trying different methods to control my right hand and am working on another drawing and it is taking a long time but I will see if I can finish it. Lori, I had severe back problems as well but waited to long to have surgery so it took 9 hours in the operating room and I ended up with multiple complications ans almost died 4 times and now I cant walk. I should have had it done sooner

Definitely NOT Natalie Portman. I should know, I'm an expert at what Natalie Portman Looks like. ;P

But anyways, good drawing Roytje. As always.

Teapot (edited Mar 23, 2013)

Well, EXCUSE me! I still think it looks a LOT like her as in the picture linked below.

Natalie when she's not grinning

I just noticed...she has elf ears!

dorothyblueeyes (Mar 25, 2013)

the skin, flesh is wonderfully glowing, and fresh , and contrasted well with the dark shading. such good use of paint and color! :)

Love it

I really liked the other girl too.. It looked like your version of an ancient painting, one I just don't know of..

lori (Feb 19, 2013)

very beautiful but I liked the dark background better

dorothyblueeyes (Mar 8, 2013)

but I see why Roytje did the green background; figures can get too lost sometimes in Very dark background, this is better; good color, too, for it. I like it.
