This is a blue heron, painted based on the one in this photo, which I found on the web. I started out working without an immediate visual reference, but the bird I created looked nothing like a Blue Heron, so I started over, working from the photo.For that matter, any useful comments and suggestions will be gratefully appreciated -- not that I would say no to compliments, either... *grin* Edit: I specifically chose the reference photo that I did, because I liked the soft, painted look of the heron in the photo itself. So, this piece will still have a soft look, just a more detailed soft look, when finished. Any suggestions on technique to achieve that look would be very welcome. :) |

This is really interesting, has great texture, has depth, and the colors you chose give a cold eerie feeling. Stick around and draw some more!

whoo, spooky! Like how the colors contrast like blurred street lights. |

You wouldn't worry so much about what other people thought of you if you realized how seldom they do.

Yes, sleep eludes me for long periods of time, which is why I draw all night here lately. And I know you aren't kidding about the hallucinations - it took between 4 and 5 days with no sleep before I had them, but boy is that scary. My name is not an acronym, it's Cindy. You can just call me that. I mean call me Cindy, not *that*. lol Your comment was very helpful, cheered me up, and the cowboy and I like the drawing much better this way. :)
alwaysLearning (Mar 11, 2004)
Thanks, Cindy, I'm pleased ta meetcha! :) I'm even more pleased that you found the comment helpful, and that it cheered you up. I know what it's like to have too many nights when sleep eludes you, and a friendly comment can make a world of difference to me, so I try to aim for saying something both friendly and useful.FYI, my hallucinations tended toward the bizarrely entertaining, the sole convincing one being <flourish of trumpets> a cardboard box. It's a funny story, message me sometime when you're bored or need a laugh, and I'll tell it to you. :)

This isn't really the kind of thing I would usually draw, but I had to do something for mr.googles background!
davincipoppalag (Mar 9, 2004)
actually,,I think the bg was a pretty good draw... I'm kinda sorry Mr. Googles stepped in front....
staci (Mar 9, 2004)
tits and ass? kinda a pleasant suprise from you, i daresay.
davincipoppalag (Mar 10, 2004)
"spectacular" in appearance
strangeoid (Mar 10, 2004)
Is this Mr. Googles at all related to Mr. Woggly? There's a bit of a resemblance... ;)Really, really perky. She's either stretching or upside down. lol |

Might be a bit late for the "Draw a picture of yourself" theme, but I finally found the time to do so. Watched "American Splendor" for most of the time, but decided to get my ass off the couch and finish this.
TheLIVR (Mar 11, 2004)
Hmm... it looks alot better on paper. The digital one doesn't do it justice.
Childlike_Vampire (Mar 11, 2004)
Ooh it's so sexy, I lurve it uber muchly! Looks just like you! the 15 year old who looks 25. Insane. It's true, though, your sketch skills are to be feared. Nice job!

Oh just realised - the red is her sock!you know for all this time I never realised what people were going on about with the red colour- than I turned up the brightness on my screen and realised I had used dark red instead of dark blue in some of the shadows.. so now I have painted it out,,,,,argh! I have the light on the screen turned down because everything looks too bright...

I *am* going for something stylized, not photo-exact, so I'm not trying for exact feathers -- but at the same time I am also trying for something that's got the look and feel of that photo, since that's what made me choose it. So, the question stands, if anyone has any suggestions as to how to get that look and feel a bit more closely on the wings. Regardless, I still appreciate the comment, feedback, and suggestion.
Edit: Thanks for the suggestion, DBA! I'm still getting used to the options on the different applets, and there are some things I seem to be able to get Shi-Painter to do that I can't seem to manage on Lascaux, yet -- but there *is* an airbrush option, I'll have to give it a try, next painting session. *smile* Thanks again!
