Nice Park bench. Where is Tako?

You captured a lot of emotions here. The tree to the left although not fully present gives the finishing mood of the shortening of days and the comming end of the year. The single!! oak leaf... even dried up. The park bench for life in the city and two lovers albeit pumpkins to remind you of the the time of the year... and the sun low in the sky attacked to a light post... how excellent. So many symbologies... even the hills and the shading. Did you think all these out? or are they just instinct. I know from your other work you can draw trees just fine.... but in here a full tree would not have provided the same mood.. This is simply excellet..

Thanks guys. Ana Tako thought it was to cold to sit on the bench :) Dave , that would hurt , lol , and yes I still hate that tree :)

This is for the contest, let me describe..

The ultimate paradise, is my ultimate dream, a world where cancer can be beaten. My father had cancer and it's so frustrating there's nothing you can do. A lot of people die because of this disease, it's a nightmare and the only paradise for me is a world where hospitals can beat cancer!

(The yellow ambulance is a dutch one, becaus i'm dutch! =D)

lol @ Axil

I'm sorry about your father, Sanne. You actually live in that world.....bazillions of people fight cancer and beat it every day. (several of my immediate family members have done so) It's not always a death sentence, sometimes it's all about attitude. You gotta want to live badly enough to... well, to LIVE, though. There are, however, inoperable, untreatable cases, and if your father's happened to be one of those, you have my deepest sympathy and my prayers.

I'm with Dan in that I'd rather die from pretty much anything than having to be saved by an ambulance that looks like a 1969-1973 reject refrigerator with wheels that came from a junkyard and was spray painted by homeless people who got hold of some really bad weed.

Remember to keep your chin up and keep your sense of humor. Nobody gets out of here alive, either way. :)

edit: I didn't intend for any of that to sound mean, I was actually trying to "impart some hope". I don't know your exact situation, and I do know personally how painful it is. Life would not be nearly so precious or joyful if it didn't come with the pain and the cost of living it. I think sometimes cancer brings itself upon us as a gift so that we have time to say "goodbye"... that's necessary for some people. Don't be afraid. (Your ambulance is cute... that along with Dan's "brashness" made me laugh and I needed that. :)

They send ambulances to cancer victims because of complications, everyone knows.
Shanghai (Sep 15, 2007)
I actually like the idea of this one. It's a serious subject, but it's drawn in a comical way. There's something almost ethereal about the idea of a physical thing like a vehicle smashing not into cancer but into the concept of cancer.
Axil62 (Sep 16, 2007)
No, it's pretty stupid.

'A fair display, my dear gal.'

Can you guess what this picture represents? No one's wrong, though, 'cause art is such a target for individual interpretation. after all.

Update: Now that I'm done, I guess I'll tell you (though it is rather obvious). It is the paradise brought through salvation!

Sleepy time!

Thank you, Kloxy. You're a sweetheart. :)
Shanghai (Sep 15, 2007)
Congratulations Hokori, "Zenker's Degeneration" is awarded first place for Contest Week 60: Paradise.
I think what I like most about this is that it doesn't even need a description or a title. The picture can stand alone and tell the viewer the same story or a similar story through the symbols. There's a self contained narrative here that shows us a past, present, and future.

Aesthetically it's very interesting. There's everything from pure black to pure white to various intense colors, but you avoided overpowering us by being very selective about how much of each of these colors to use and by balancing the composition with some amounts of similar colors in other places. For example, the bright red of the neck is balanced by the same red in the devil's face. The surreal perspective works well for the story-telling aspect as well.
Hokori (edited Sep 15, 2007)
Yay! :)

So... uh... how does this prize thing work, anyway?
Shanghai (Sep 15, 2007)
I dun know ¿o_o?

Kloxboy said he'd handle it though, so I guess he'll memo you.

Hey great style on this one! Some part of me wants to clean up those lines, the other part says that those lines accent the picture. I don't know. Good job though!

Contest Week 60: Paradise
Shanghai (edited Sep 15, 2007)
Contest Week 60: Paradise *11ish day contest. -now closed for judging- Paradise could be many things- a place, a dream, or maybe a time spent with someone. There's no wrong answer there, because paradise to you is going to be different from what someone else's paradise is. Your goal here is to show us what you think paradise is. This is obviously going to be a very open ended contest, so I'm hoping to see a variety of ideas for what makes a paradise. Because there are so many possibili...

Kloxboy, I am only trying to help, I apologize if I said something to upset you, that was not my intention :)
Kloxboy (Sep 2, 2007)
Pantera: No worries, no apology needed. Thanks.
enjoydotcom (edited Sep 4, 2007)
Great job Arique, too bad you were too late, imo it was one of the best runs of to hide from the other artists in this contest
So you just get a virtual feather in your hat. :D
Childlike_Vampire (edited Sep 4, 2007)
OH man what a frickin bummer. This really rocks though, great way to combine the two. It's a great painting, I like the colors and his expression...really gets the feelings of love and hate across. I understand the competition thing, I was in choir and I loved it...I used to joke that there were four parts to our choir instead of three...Soprano, Second, Alto, and MEL. *hated Mel*
