Lovely skin tones. I like how this looks like prisma pencils.

I love the colors in this. You can really feel the space in this. Seems like it goes on for ever.

rofl no you weren't :) you were very helpful with all the comments you made ;)
I'm happy to be back! I'm really glad to see that oldies are still active!
and I'm glad that 2draw's community is kind of small. the internet is overwhelming :(

OOOOh, yummy, look so real! Great work Axel.yes, Axel is so good, he can teach any of us.those are absolutely delicious!

(My problem, I find, is that I am no longer the younger person who made all the very realistic or decorative work in my life. Apparently it no longer appeals to me, and also my hands can't do it anymore. Too much arthritis. But that just happens to some people with age, and definitely in my family.but also I'm not the same person, so my artwork isn't the same, and I can't do the same thing I used to do. Except for cartoons, is all., I found out that art isn't the only thing in life, and it doesn't do for me what it did, be such a great addiction.I did so much of it, I'm pretty much sapped out. I started in the first grade drawing in class, and I never quit.also, I don't feel like I have anything to prove to anybody except myself. Weird isn't it?I'm not sure whether it's a good thing or bad thing. Or neutral.) but I'm glad Axel is still going strong.

Oh these would be the perfect compliment followup to my chili breakfast! Slow cooked all night long...I'm a sucker for chocolate too. You were never an asshole to me Dan, and i appreciate it ^___^ Are u still dabbling in cake decorating?? Or maybe you've moved on to truffles? Beautiful work darlin'

my daughter was on Black Sand Beach on Hilo and was told it was dangerous but didn't listen and was swept out to deep water with strong currents by a wave and was drowning when she was rescued by 3 Hawian cliff divers. The reference is from a photo taken at the time

thanks elly and yes it was terrifying Dave, when her father tried to get help by waving his arms and yelling people just waved back. It wasn't until the cliff divers came walking up the trail that help arrived. They ran to the edge of the cliff and dove in and were able to swim out to her. By that time she had inhaled a lot of water and she was cut up quite a bit from the sharp rocks when they brought her to shore

lori (Nov 5, 2012)

glad she's ok

pawillie (Nov 5, 2012)

it was a close call, it took several months for her lungs to heal. If the cliff divers hadn't come by when they did she would not have it

dorothyblueeyes (Nov 16, 2012)

Jiminy crickets, that was a close one. This is a beautiful painting of the ocean nevertheless. Quite powerful and yet delicate. (In Oregon and Washington states, when people are careless at the coast, it happens every once in a while. I've also heard of it happening in San Francisco off their beaches or docks. The ocean is immensely powerful, and too complex to swim in, as far as I'm concerned. Is really dangerous.)

i SO like this one.

madscientist111 (May 30, 2013)

This is amazing! Looks like actress, Lee Grant!

Teapot (edited May 31, 2013)

Thank you. I'll have to look her up--don't know the name. I wasn't trying to make it look like anyone in particular, it sort of took shape after a lot of doodling.

Oh yeah, I do know who she is and it does resemble her somewhat. http://www.allocine.fr/personne/fichepersonne-10523/photos/detail/?cmediafile=18860723

Melancholy.
When a man loses all reason, discouraged by his own strength. He falls again, void of matter, void of spirit, barely carries himself.

"DESPAIR COMICS"

dorothyblueeyes (Jul 31, 2012)

My references are only an old memory of a underground comic book, by that really famous guy, I think. he did a comic book very similar to this, "despair"comics, or something like that.two people in a room,ordinary,in futile mediocre hopelessness of being stuck in this mediocre society, and daily tedium. this is an update, to the present despair and futility people feel now, a lot of them.--but the original picture was FUNNY, dark humour and satire. he's better than me.God, was that the seventies or eighties, i lost all my comic books.Damn. I lost my "armadillo comics" it was funny, well drawn.ok, so i copied his old comic book page, concept, ect. I liked it so much, it was such a good vehicle for this subject, the modern one.( I am also personally not feeling so good, i have two ear infections. ouch. And i just got older, shit, i hate that. (I'd prefer it to go a lot faster, and get it over with.like this picture concept, it just drags on.)---(thanks, itchymonkey, nice to know Crumb hates getting old too.)

(Despair is "mourning, grief", someone died, too.And someone else, is going to die."Old age is not for Wimps.")

Yes, it was. That was my first thought but I couldn't remember him doing anything called despair, but he did.

dorothyblueeyes (edited Aug 2, 2012)

THAT'S EXACTLY THE COMIC!! I knew who it was, i just kept thinking "Cap, Cap" instead of "Crumb", my boomer brain hates names. "comixjoint.com/despair-1rst.html " but i never forgot that cover. It just said it all. heh heh. thanks, axil. thanks, itchy. :)

drawn in 1 hour 9 min

"copying R.Crumb's "Despair comics" for this era. ( i did a lousy coloring job, ugh) painting. it should have been all flat color, like a comic book.)

After i looked at this again, i liked it a lot more.pretty good comic, for me being out of practice.And i pretty much memorized the whole picture.

GOD, COMICS WORK GREAT ON COMPUTERS!!! THEY ARE FABULOUS TO USE ON COMICS!! WHY DIDNT WE HAVE COMPUTERS YEARS AGO? IT WOULD HAVE MADE COMICS SO GREAT TO DO!!! BOO-HOO, I MISSED OUT ON THE 'PUTER REVOLUTION OF ART!!I NEED A NEW, YOUNG ANDROID BODY!!

I bet Henry Ford thought,"How cum I can't do hot-rods, diesel, and souped-up cars??the autobahn hasn't been invented yet!! phooey, all we have are cars that get started with hand cranks!dang!! I want a lamborgini!! A mercedes! a funny car!boo hoo!" ha ha. no, i enjoyed doing this, it was fun, doing comics this way would be fantastic. wow. :)

thank you, everyone, who looked up the comics online! :)

I saw it race at Atco dragway in south jersey

dorothyblueeyes (edited Aug 15, 2012)

hey, Axel, very cute. I really like it and the color. Did you ever used to collect car models or truck models? I used to collect tiny little starship models.good job. It kind of reminds me of a little animal, getting ready to pounce. Hee hee.

he knows just when to stop. me also, tend to over do something, i heard long ago, the real ones know when to stop.

I think less is more with this, something I struggle with.

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Mar 31, 2012)

I recognized it as yours in less than a second from the thumbnail, always amazes me how that happens
