This is my favourite so far.
cmb (Dec 29, 2006)
van Goghs use of complementary colours really helped me along....
Ruggi (Jan 6, 2007)
I like the table and the lamps especially... something about the right kind of stripiness I think?
cmb (Jan 7, 2007)
yes- I tried to copy his brushstrokes... possibly overdid the glow of the lamps...

Another favorite cmb!
I think Renoir would even like this one!
Ruggi (Jan 6, 2007)
She looks so 19th century french! Great job!
cmb (Jan 6, 2007)
I just loved the colours he uses and the way Betty looks up seemed to fit under that hat....
yates (Jan 7, 2007)
I totally agree on the Renoircolors: i recognize them in your draw,.. Good job!

Was he a pointillist? (or however that's spelled) this is very pretty so far
Ruggi (Jan 6, 2007)
Thanx! Yeah, he seems to like those dots. You can find this one ("La Louvre et le Pont du Carrousel - Effet de Nuit") and some others on http://impressionism-art.org/cat20.htm?sessionid=ea8f8943d1af25a348d2be5c9a05b776
The one online looks a lot more yelloy than the postcard I used though!
Alter.Native (Jan 6, 2007)
Very atmospheric.
Ruggi (Jan 6, 2007)
Can't revise it anymore... out of space already. I guess the combination of points and brush uses up too many kb's. Wonder if those old pointillists ever ran out of space too...?

Bloodshot fire clouds in your eyes
I can’t say what I might believe
But if God made you he’s in love with me"

Wow... great sky... beautiful water... lovely colours... did I say beautiful water yet?
Axil62 (Sep 13, 2006)
This is not advanced.
fleeting_memory (Sep 14, 2006)
I agree with you axil-I was hoping it would be when I finished it-but it wont let me.

WHen I was 7 or 8, my father gave me for my birthday a book about the paranormal... I was particulary impressed by Vlad the Impaler. You should know him, Bram Stoker based part of his character "Dracula" on this man. Anyway, the point is I got obssesed with vampires and was facinated by Nosferatu, but just recently I had the chance to see the movie, and I loved it.

I have got a new tablet, YAY! And, isn't october a spooky month? Yay for themed drawing!

Well, I feel honoured. Thanks Solve!
Roytje (Nov 13, 2006)
Greatness. Best black/ white piece I've seen lately.
Sweetcell (Nov 13, 2006)
Waited till this was finished before I commented. Of all the vampires he's the scariest (as one can see just from looking at him) The other vampires after him have some sexuality to them (even Lagosi) but Nosferatu is just scare you shitless. Amazing as always Deino. I'd say showcase but maybe just a t-shirt, right on the back so people can freak as you walk away.
TuffGhost (Dec 22, 2006)
I love this, great job! One of my favorite movie monsters.

I love the line of black trees on the sides, it really adds to it

I love the clouds in the sky

and the over all gloomy feeling
Ruggi (Oct 29, 2006)
Thanx! Yeah I kinda like those trees too. It's mainly the 'water' that bothers me. I tried making it more wavy, but then the entire picture became a bit too busy, so I smoothed it out again. But it looks more like ice now...
Jennybis (Oct 30, 2006)
ho ho ho great, and a new inspiration source... anyway La Seine is not wavy :)
I thought you left your black and white camera at home !! ;)
Ruggi (Oct 31, 2006)
Yes I did! I used one of my old B&W pictures for inspiration... :o)

I forgive you. Will you forgive yourself?
DeadlyBlondeArcher (Aug 24, 2006)
Absolutely not, I don't know how, but you're way ahead of me.
Ruggi (Aug 24, 2006)
Nice piece, DJ... I like how we seem to see right through him...
Miss_DJ (Oct 14, 2006)

edit: I just worked for an hour on it, it was pretty much finished, and then my internet crashed. So I give up.
edit: It's not as good as my other version, but oh well.

With the free-form "strokes" you have here, the contrast, the lighting... the piercing eyes that grab you... I say it's just DONE. Of course you could do other stuff to it, but instead of saying you're giving up, just say you're quitting while you're ahead. I liiiike it. :)
Miss_DJ (Oct 9, 2006)
INCREDIBLE! feel those muscle..yowza! (I bet he smells wonderful..what do you think DBA?..lol)

Sweetcell (Oct 7, 2006)
You still have to do my request Poppa.

Maybe a ship crashing into a lighthouse while the plane is on a dive towards the windmill. X}

emmamommalag (Oct 7, 2006)
Yes! That sounds like a great idea. :D
