this is beautiful.. I really like the seemingly light touch you gave the hair and background

guyh! so pretty O.O *love love*

Beautifull

I agree with Enjoy, Punky and Klox. I and several people have asked for more time and effort spent so the boards aren't flooded, and I hate repeating myself over and over. I'm sure when Mai or someone sees this and others she posted on Inter they'll be moved down appropraitely.

Mai took action! :0

Mai, I kiss you cause you are da ting mang. Da ting.

You know what these designs of yours remind me of? The Art's and Crafts movement, with the likes of Frank Lloyd Write and William Morris and more importantly Charles Mackintosh of which your designs strongly resemble (and are my favorites of that era). These can be wallpaper's, or carvings or lovely paintings. Every one shows a uniqueness that's not seen much on here. This reminds me of glass work on a vase or bowl. Or metalwork. Really nice Lori.

thank you all so much, I just now saw some of these comments

Thanks..

You captured the essence of him really well. That's really really important in drawing a portrait. If you don't have that, it's just a good picture of somebody who looks alot like that person. If you can capture it, it IS that person. I think you are alot better at drawing portraits than you give yourself credit for Poppa :)

Awwww you're just predjudiced Aubsy heheh (((Aubsy))

Works like this constantly remind me why I consider you an artist on this site.

That's just surrealistic, really makes you look at this. Gallery material I say.

You should be elected God, srsly.

Dig the mouth and eyes. And the unobtrusive text. Works well.

happy belated birthday! nice draw...it does look painted. (you're not old, trust me..)

Nice ear so far :) I like how you draw the words here .

I think you guys are over reacting. His comment wasn't that abrasive. He said please, he said clox's drawings are good and he even poked fun at himself for "sounding like a dick".

it's all good, and as for this drawing.. I really like the difference in colors between the subject and the background, it really pops out at you, well done Juno

I gave Alex my perspective, his comments merited an explanation. I would hope there is no need to beat a dead horse but it would seem this subject comes up over and over. I'm getting better at explaining why I draw faces so much because I've explained it so many times. I may just cut and paste my comments from this drawing the next time someone questions me like this. :)

To be honest, he' not a bad ass/bad boy/asshole guy.
he's some sweet dide that listens to metal. the conflict lies within myself.
because it's so out of character for him, i don't know what to make of it,
i don't know if losing such a big part of me is the way to go...


but now i kinda have to lol

Other people have it much worse than you. Try have your whole life flipped upside down...awww....poor girl. Anywho random tangy over, just push through and find happiness in other things. For example, i find personal happiness in sitting on my head (only at home of course! don't like randomly sit on your head in the mall or something! that'd be pretty weeeeird...)

i'm not saying "omfg i'm in the worst relationship in the world!!" no it was nothing like that, i was expressing my personal feeling in how i figured best to do it other then take it out on loved ones or myself.
you know what i'm sick of? the people who go around telling those who're in a tough spot "butch up, other's out there have it worse" you know what? no fuckign shit, someone always has it better, someone always has it worse, this is my therapy, this is my "personal happiness" if you don't like it you don't have to look, you don't have to comment.
