Started first, finished second of the mother~child series. Little did I know starting out this serie the theme mother~child would become sooo important to me.

Inspired by the lovely poster I have hanging on my wall, don't know where to find it online (haven't looked to be honest), but all credits go to Misha and Makulu who are Rothchild's Giraffes, picture taken by Ron D'raine. The original is something I still find one of the best images of all time!

Not sure if I ever told this back then explicitly, but I started this 2 weeks before my mother passed away very suddenly and finished it a couple weeks afterwards. I was already drawing a lot, and actually drawing on this site when I was called away to her. And afterwards I found solace in this.
It was and still is my main hobby, my mother knew (obviously) and liked to draw herself as well.

Glad you had it to help you through all that Joycie

Nothing says "I love you Dad" like a digital painting that makes fun of his face. I felt they should both be in this one (yes, that's my mother). This is cutting it close. I planned on doing this all week but procrastinated, I'll be paying for it today...I'm tired. -_-

I wouldn't mind taking mustache tips from your pop.

Leave it to you to be able to inject a tiny bit of caricaturism into this and still allow us to see that your father is a very handsome man, and your mother is beyond "Sunday School beautiful". Do you even realize what a talented artist you are? WELL, DO YOU?

Noremac (Jun 16, 2007)

I'd do it.

Sweetcell (Jun 16, 2007)

The blood splatter looks like it's on glass. Nicely done here Juni. Love the hair, and the blood smears on him look almost like tribal art.

It doesn't hate you too badly if you can do this..good work here...

Sweetcell (Jun 6, 2007)

Wow, that's a very cracked face. Certainly has seen it's share of sun and sand. But it's the fabric I like best. Whenever I do fabric it looks plastickey (made up a word)

Keep going Joanna.

diver2026 (Jun 8, 2007)

beautiful eyes, and i agree with sweetcell, the fabric is very nice.

JK-Arts (Jun 16, 2007)

Great portrait

davincipoppalag (Jun 16, 2007)

This one is good. It has a painted look, and I like the expression

making the martyrs happy

patienceisoverrated (Jun 14, 2007)

in a crazy mood i don't like at all, lethargic/apathetic/dizzy/spacey, tried to run it off, then dance it off, then draw it off, and nothing's working so i guess i'll try and sleep it off now.
