This is where I view an "abstract type" painting, and I know that it works perfectly. I never know for sure how, or why, and I certainly can't do it myself, but you really "pulled it off" right in this one. It has no beginning or ending and it flows outward. It reminds me of the Navajo lightning pattern in weaving... there's always an "escape route" in the pattern... it is open. This does that.

You talk good DBA, your talking is nice.

I hardly know what to say Juno, though I'd like to know how much you would charge to do large scale mural.

DeadlyBlondeArcher (May 13, 2007)

Why, thank you, and if you'd like to call my 1-800 number, the first three minutes are FREE!!!!
_{must be 18 years or older to call, $21.95 plus applicable taxes apply after the first three minutes, on and on with the little fine print blah blah ahahhhhh ;)}

I know nothing..but that I like what you did here, and I can't afford to call Cindy...the taxes would kill me

The calf seems fine; I think it's just the thigh that's too long.

DeadlyBlondeArcher (edited May 16, 2007)

You're all wrong, WRONG, I TELL YOU!!!! :D To make it simple, if you were to just bring the outer line of the knee in a little and the line that separates the thigh and the calf in a little, it would correct the whole problem. I think the torso is fine. God, you brunette people are DENSE. lol The thing I noticed first here, was the elegant feminine curviness you gave to the shoulders and the hair. It's a beautiful sketch just like it is, regardless.

The main thing I see in this is the thing I see in most of your work lately (I have been watching quietly and very pleased)... that you are rapidly maturing as an artist. :)

I was just looking at that water and those two waves and kept seeing straight hard lines and shoddy blending and had to fix it before it drove me mad. Glad I still had some space left, I hope this looks better now.

Anna (May 25, 2007)

You totally nailed our water! This is so perfect!

Kayos (Jun 13, 2007)

WOW! Im suprised I never saw this on here till now.. You did a superb job on this. Waves are so hard to pull off and look real, and you did spectacularly. I think the thing I like best about it, is the non-burning yellow light typicly on a beach picture. This has the feel of a layer of fog or overcast. * runs from the sun for feer of another 3rd degree burn day.. shuttter* And I always prefer the beach when its like this, and not blearing sun murdering your skin. ;)

Mothers are the best 'invention' even before sliced bread!

Punky (May 9, 2007)

I really love the all those soft pastel colours you manged to put in there, they all blend so nicely without looking like vomit.
Beautiful picture, I think it's really sweet and gorgeous.

patienceisoverrated (May 9, 2007)

i really really like these colours, and how they sort of glow and pulse. it reminds me of supersmooth chalk pastel.

it's a nice thing to draw :]

Limpet: I don't choose which board to use based on the quality of the drawing, just on how much space I think I'll need.

enjoy: happens all the time.

Very nice realism, btw :)

I study your work. Someday...it will show! Wonderful lady there, Axil..

DBA I like them too, only to see them crawl on a leaf, but not when they fly...then they make me nervous, like they'll land in my hair.

Cameo (May 10, 2007)

DBA and Miss DJ, to have one in your house, brings good luck. Well...that's what I've heard! ;o)

i like this messy style good job.

HunterKiller_ (May 8, 2007)

Good work on this.

DeadlyBlondeArcher (May 8, 2007)

This is great... I wouldn't tag the style as "messy", though... I think it's rather best described as strong, bold, definite. Either way, it's really refreshing, I like it very much.

davincipoppalag (May 8, 2007)

Another one Giselle! Terrific.. I like these very much, too..they're vibrant and interesting....I thought this one looked a lot like James Earl Jones..
