Inspired by the famous you-know-who. 1958

Here's the ref: http://www.virtualdali.com/58MeditativeRose.html

I realised that my imagination is no better than my attempts at realism and so, since Dali was the first artist that I quite admired for his style, I thought I'd give my 2 cents on one of his famous pieces. I was gonna do "Persistence of Memory" but I didn't think it was even possible to duplicate.

Well, I tried.

beautiful delicate rose, this is awesome cordelia! it would make an awesome tattoo.

Cordelia_Pink (Mar 2, 2008)

haha a tattoo?! nah... but thanks anyway! finally a comment from YOU, Starz! took u long enough. just kidding. I'm still planning on adding more stuff to it but I always seem to be stuck with ideas...

mooki (Mar 2, 2008)

love that stem expecially

Cordelia_Pink (Mar 4, 2008)

aw I was hoping you'd keep your eyes on the rose petals! that's the BEST part ('cause it wasn't my idea anyway hehe) but thanks mooki. I figured a stem would be necessary on this.

And Axil, Sweetcell, GoldDragonfly, lori, elly, DorsY, and UnWanted: I didn't mean to ignore your comments. I should specify who I'm thanking for next time. In fact, I'm glad that some of you mentioned the other part of it besides the rose. I know how easy it is to compare it to the original, in which, I'm usually in favor of. And I was waiting for something to blurt out, "Dali!" 'cause he's the man, really, duh. And Sweetcell, glad to know there's still ppl here who remember me. :D

-7 mins because I left to make tea xD
one eye is different to the other because I have difficulty drawing a perfect symmetry on a face o_o
but anyhow, no face is perfect!
Unless you've had plastic surgery :|

I added the bubble to hide the "I'm too lazy to part of her arm"-ness x]

Reminds me of In Keeping Secrets Of Silent Earth: 3 by Coheed And Cambria,
Because in one part is says
"Jealous envy for the youngest one
To be the hero is all I'll ask"

..... I need to stop relating things to Coheed And Cambria songs xD;;

Anyways, this is really good! :]
Hope to see more from you~ ^3^

I'm lovin' it, DoOp! You're getting so much better at realism!

"Lips need to be wider and not as parted, though once you widen them, they won't look as open"

I don't know about that, I think you're crazy to think the lips are anything less than perfect.

Flubbles (May 27, 2008)

Theres not a lot that has to be wrong to throw a drawing off, i think youve done a great job.The lips look like they should be a bit higher and the cheek and chin on the left hand side should be a little higher and wider, sometimes if you make changes they are for the worse though, so id probobly just leave it :p

You just want to touch it, you know? It looks like some kind of beautifully hammered metal... only the metal has flesh tones.

Gorgeous eyes, brown/black eyes are seriously underrated in photography if you ask me. You mostly see greenish blue eyes.

Axil62 (Feb 8, 2008)

Your day breaks, your mind aches
You find that all the words of kindness linger on

When she no longer needs you

She wakes up, she makes up
She takes her time and doesn't feel she has to
hurry
She no longer needs you

And in her eyes you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears
Cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years!

You want her, you need her
And yet you don't believe her when she said her
love is dead
You think she needs you

And in her eyes you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears
Cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years!

You stay home, she goes out
She says that long ago she knew someone but now
he's gone
She doesn't need him

Your day breaks, your mind aches
There will be time when all the things she said
will fil your head
you won't forget her

And in her eyes you see nothing
No sign of love behind the tears
Cried for no one
A love that should have lasted years!

I love this wiz, fun in the sun, where's the hot beach babe on the polka dot blanket, I thought those were given away free when you bought the blanket! Hope she wasn't blonde and forgot that she didn't know how to swim...
