There
is one
who
can help
who turns
the wheel
from
non-existence
to a sweet
breathing
emptiness. - Rumi

I went about this very messily, but I enjoyed it anyway... this would be fanart, I guess, of a pic in my calendar... you may see more art (better art) like this @ www. brushdance.com

It's very beautiful and also interesting to look at....I used comic books as my inspiration for anatomy all the time when I first started oekaki..but now I don't need them...and i think eventually you will be able to come up with more original pieces....you are a great artist and we all have faith in you...:)

lori, we all go through that, when we were young our imaginations could keep us drawing all day long, then we age and life sucks the imagination and magic right out of our minds and hearts, so don't feel bad, we all have that issue, I have things floating up in my head but can't seem to lasso them and put them down on paper, the way my mind's eye sees them, that is probably why I get stuck using photo ref. so much, it is easier than frustrating my self to death trying to pick my brain and make my hands produce what my mind sees....oh such is the life of a cynic...lol

well said --- and thanks backmagicwoman :)

This is very nice Lori! Reminds me of some sort of Alex Grey art. http://www.alexgrey.com/ The artist who did art for the well known Band called "Tool".

There are enough female ballet dancers, let's let the men have their share.

His face is fugly and nothing close to the dancer in the ref. *sigh* Well I had enough of it. Maybe I'll get back to it one day..... and also fix those pants. WTF? I thought I colored them solid black?

Well it is late here..... that's an excuse.... right?

The leg is a bit bendy, but I like the coloring and rest. The way you colored it reminds me of Ittykitty.

Sweetcell (May 6, 2008)

This is good but you should be starting on beginners first to get a feel for the appelet's and work your way to intermediate. If your unsure please read the rules/faq.

backmagicwoman (May 7, 2008)

This looks nice..but it could use some work..practice, practice, practice..;. :)

patienceisoverrated (May 7, 2008)

this is pretty nice, and I can tell you put some work into it. :) but you've got a few issues with her anatomy, would you like a redline?

Reminds me of this holographic shirt pen my brother used to have..it's cool:)

enjoydotcom (May 6, 2008)

DK, if you look besides the image, and only see it from the corners of your eyes, it will move. At least, it did when I looked.
At first I also wanted to say, not advanced. Until I noticed you used Lascaux, that to the best of my knowledge does not have a texture like the background. So at least you get a 'kudos' for that.

gel_o (May 6, 2008)

ouch...very interesting.

Kulu (edited May 8, 2008)

thanks all...bmw what makes a pen specifically a shirt pen? ;)

and enjoy, advanced was used for size...these types of illusions are hard to replicate effectively on a smaller scale. as per the textures, well, its not, its lines...lots of them, with just enough frequency to sequence evenly..there are some imperfections, and it does not have the effect i wanted, but im happy

One Red Rose ... for the Derby Filly

Aakyra (Mar 20, 2008)

In recognition and memory of "Eight Belles", Kentucky Derby - 2008
Your "Run for the Roses" was magnificent....

From sire to sire, it's born in the blood
The fire of a mare and the strength of a stud
It's breeding and it's training ... and it's something unknown
That drives you and carries you home.
And it's run for the roses as fast as you can
Your fate is delivered and your moment's at hand
It's the chance of a lifetime, in a lifetime of chance ...
And it's high time you joined in the dance
