Basic computer looking anatomy

self explanitory

It's me, hiding from all the verbal stuff,that gets crazy,on the site,hoping no insects are running the site. not watching whats going on.

I just cannot find any way else to explain what I am seeing.All the time.( Awww, thank you, Staci! :) )

Not finished; will finish later. I just could not resist this comment, on hearing and reading on the difference between how America now is,and how China now is. To be blunt, I think America did this to itself, a lot of the blame rests on us. We just let ourselves go, secure in the vanity that "America is the greatest country in the world," and resting on our laurels. Meanwhile, other countries were working like crazy. Just my observation, that's all. (It's a complex subject.)

Portrait of old lady,who just lost her last friend,(portrait contest?); we have less friends as we get older,and less to spare,and often,old people get down to one last one,and do not often make new ones.So,the way the picture is done,style,ect.,is meant to represent that.crude,rough,short,and unfinished.

thank you for the comments.(it's ok about the contest,this was fun.)

the spirit of the Us nation, spirit of 1776,is not done yet; too fuzzzy, I was tired, up all night (bad back) and did not get done yet. "supernatural"I will work on it again.



Finished:I'm having other troubled,taking precident,and I'm very unstrung.so,this thing gave me trouble,cause the "spiritualism"or "unphysicalness"of the supernatural spirit,was hard to imagine;how fragile,how wispy?how do you symbolize freedom coming to someone,supernaturally?Or,rather the spirit of freedom?very tricky.I am really stressed out,and not knowing what other stuff,that's in my life,I do take refuge in art,and craft,so I'm doing that,but not very WELL. ok,so I admit,this was HARD. I guess I should have used a "resource picture"but how do you show a phantom?an idea?ok,well,some of it is so crude,I'm not a "showplace"person,obviously.but I kind of got the idea,and this software is giving me cats-freaks,I did not know--get this--the pads and pens are PRESSURE SENSITIVE, till I saw someone's post, never occured to me, pressure. well,thanks for commenting,then,this is just an "idea".not so good physically.

I just looked at it,from a distance,and now,I do like it; very 3-dimensional, at a distance. Ok, I like it a bit. especially how the shadowed face seems so deep, and the student is so real, and in the front.
