not sure how finished this is or not
Semper Fi = Always Faithful

but now isn't drawing so much more peaceful?

used a reference for the dog except for the color

will continue to improve this

My father would be so proud :)

By the way, I recently emailed the White House about a few things, local things.. and I will be voting as of 2008, finally, given that I am healthy enough to make a decision.



this was not an easy poster for me to draw.

Always did have a thing for flying turtles... Inspired by Incubus' "Summer Romance." sort of.

Thats really beautiful. Amazing idea. It looks great and is really interesting. :)

The way your strokes flow so loosely make it feel like both the turtles and all the air around them is moving about.

Pretty sweet

This is a very strong image with that deep sky and bright fire. It definately feels like it has an upward thrust just looking at it.

I'm not aware of wings, just that I feel like I'm swimming in the air and people are down below watching me
I will try to make this better but keep in mind that my eyes are not working properly lately, the majority of the time

Looks good, we have several blue jays around this part of the country! but I know after watching a hawk attack one, there not friends. The hawk held it down and plucked its feathers, then ate it.

the first version, before you went bonkers, looked a lot like the kind of thing that Matisse guy did.
emmamommalag (Dec 23, 2007)
A lot of Matisse's stuff would likely get dumped on here, too.
lori (edited Dec 23, 2007)
weirdness, I haven't looked into any artists.. haven't had any schooling, so I only reallly know pretty much ones I like like Norman Rockwelll and stuff...

Flight represents freedom. But freedom has boundaries. The wings gave Icarus freedom of movement. He could soar through the heavens anywhere he wanted to. But he flew too far; he tried to go beyond the heavens, as high as he could go. His pride brought him down as the firy heat of the sun set his wings ablaze. Thus he fell.

Drawn in a linocut style.

Felistorm (Dec 19, 2007)
I know this isn't the best I could do but it was the idea I sorta came up with. I've had a very hard last few months with the loss of a child and so forth and I've really needed to draw but hadn't had it in me but the deal for this contest caught my eye and I had a drawing in my head so I figured blah draw it. Hopefully I can be in here more. I have been painting some gourds at home recently which came out allright.

So sorry to hear of your loss . This is good for you.
Miss_DJ (Dec 19, 2007)
I like this Felistorm. I'm sorry, too about your loss. A close friend of mine just lost her son, and she's benefiting from meeting with a group of people who have suffered the same loss. I hope you have support as well. Gentle hug, Donna
Felistorm (Dec 20, 2007)
Thank you guys. He was due December 4th but I had him Sept 28th. I named him Chance Shiloah. He had trisomy 18 which is a fluke genetic disorder that anyone only has a 1 percent chance of going through. We are going to try again here soon. I have 3 kids from a prior marriage but he was mine and my fiance's first. I think it has just been hitting harder because of the holidays. The drawing helps though. I may try and find a way to post my gourd pics on here or for anyone in deviant art I haven't been in there in awhile I may do it there. any crafting or art is a good way for me to vent.

I'm so sorry to hear that Jana, I don't have a child myself but I know how hard it would be. My thoughts go to you honey. By all means draw when you need to draw. This is nice and colorful.

A flight of stairs in flight.

I don't know if I want to change anything anymore, but I will check back tomorrow and see if I like it as is.
I'm not satisfied with the last step closest to the viewer...

And edited. Made it crisper round the edges :)
