I really like this one. I would have emphasised the toes on our left, his right, a little less, but the mood and pose are very effective. Something about the whole thing conjures the past for me, my past, like when I was around 18.

DeadlyBlondeArcher (edited Jan 11, 2006)

Imagine that, a guy on a couch. Guys never get on couches. This is moody and I like it, as well.

staci (Jan 17, 2006)

its no doubt his moms couch.

I LOVE THIS! *cheer*

I love the window.......I would love to see the whole house it's connected to.

Axil62 (Jan 17, 2006)

I'll post a link to the house. Note though, that I used different parts of the three windows at the bottom and combined them to make one window that had all the properties I wanted for this one window, so this window will look familiar to the windows in the ref, but not a literal copy of any one of them.

JoeNobody (Jan 17, 2006)

Thanks for sharing, great windows on that house....but I like yours better....and not just because you left off the cheap K-Mart mini blinds...

HunterKiller_ (Jan 17, 2006)

This just great. Very moody, the first glimpse of this just made me think of summer time, ice-cream, cicadas churping. Fantastic work.

Tonight we have a succulent center cut prime envy covered in a light jealousy sauce served with a glass of our finest imported inspiration.

It's so effective to leave the hair and dress less detailed. One of my favourite painting styles--a mixture of impressionism and realism. When it works, as this does, I think there is no painting style more beautiful. Looking at these purples and orange/golds together is a sensory treat.

O.O= ok i would like to take this moment to pre-emptively dedicate a middle finger, to everyone who wants me to change something on this.
3 hours of trial and error making someone elses character into a drawing. it stays how it is.

I didnt think, giving people advice was negitive criticism. Besides, he wants people to give him advice on what OTHER people think he/she should do to mke it better, that is not nessasarily criticism.

SYTHE (Jan 15, 2006)

Alright MBS, how about this; Keep practicing and don't get discouraged! (that was the core message in my last comment)

JK-Arts (Jan 15, 2006)

Mybettastorm, There is one thing i think you forgot to mention: How the use of layers. Make its much easier to keep the horizon line defined and how using the layers to making sepertions or in this case, the water/fore layers and the sky as the background layer. Then after having set the colors the way, wanted. use of dodge tool as means of adding lights or brightness. (for those not fimilar with the dodge tool)
Like in all things and ART. Art; no exseption this is something that over time will get better and better with practice.
So any advice keep a steady eye and keep on drawing. If your hearts in it don't stop.

mybettastorm (Jan 15, 2006)

Alright MBS, how about this; Keep practicing and don't get discouraged! (that was the core message in my last comment)

Yes, I agree with you.

Sweetcell (Jan 12, 2006)

That is wonderful to watch, and it's so preety. I see your using the tablet program, it's worth the time downloading then? I enjoyed this Axil, as I do all your stuff.

when God made me

Axil62 (Jan 12, 2006)

WHEN GOD MADE ME

Was he thinking about my country,
or the colour of my skin?
Was he thinking about my religion,
and the way I worshipped him?
Did he create just me in his image,
or every living thing?

When God made me.
When God made me.

Was he planning only for believers,
or for those who just had faith?
Did he envision all wars
that were fought in his name?
Did he say there was only one way
to be close to him?

When God made me.
When God made me.

Did he give me the gift of love
to say who I could choose?

When God made me.
When God made me.
When God made me.

Did he give me the gift of voice
so some could silence me?
Did he give me the gift of vision
not knowing what I might see?
Did he give me the gift of compassion
to help my fellow man?

When God made me.
When God made me.
When God made me.

The varying colours of the sky are brilliant.

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Jan 13, 2006)

I think this now has to be my favorite painting of yours. So peaceful and beautiful, perfect for such deep and thought-provoking lyrics.
