thanks! I know what you mean! Im over the file size so I wont revise!

I find myself waiting for the curtain to start moving softly with a gentle breeze passing through then I am captured by the figure and her tranquility. I notice the book and wonder what has captured her thoughts. I love the colors, the lines, and the patterns in the draw and her bare feet give a feeling of warmth and comfort. I love the overall effect of this one. Personally, I don't think you need to change a thing.
cmb (Nov 29, 2006)
thank you Tammy! the only revision I was thinking of was possibly birds flying by the window- but they would disturb the tranquility....

Yes, I wanted to revise it another time, but I hadn't enough space (for the second time :()
But thank you!

dude, how could this not make it to the Showcase?? haven't seen one of these styles in a very, very long time! you did an excellent job, I knew instantly that it was Van Gogh. I like your take on this too because you didn't try to make it look exactly like it, and there's a blur in parts of it that makes it look softer compared to the orig. that has all the intricate details, which seem quite intense and sharp. But you still did great.
Roytje (Apr 4, 2008)
Thank you! Such a comment means a lot to me :)

Very nice Roytje! I too have this print in living room. Thought about recreating it, but man, so tedious.

Ah the 1980's when big earrings and even bigger shoulder pads were in fashion. Leather Jackets and cummerbunds.... white ankle socks and stilletos, multi coloured spiked hair and adam ant white stripes... not to mention leopard print leggings cut off just below the knee.. and did we feel strange or out of place? No! Never!

great entry- there is a film by this name that I really want to see... must get it out on hire... you have really modelled this well...looks almost 3d
djramz99 (edited Nov 28, 2006)
I have not seen the film, but there is a book that just came out called I am Vermeer. If I understand it right, it is about a guy that was hired by someone to copy Vermeer paintings, so if the Nazis stole them they would be stealing fakes. But apparently he was so good that later they werent sure which were originals and which were copies.
cmb (Nov 28, 2006)
Yes- I heard about that too,,,, it was around the time of the second world war...
Miss_DJ (Dec 2, 2006)
This is really nicely done.

Contest Week 38: Master Study - 2 week contest <<***Showcase Announcement below!***>> Your goal these next 2 weeks is to reproduce a painting by one of history's master painters.

All the movements are acceptabl...

Hmmm didnt really come out that well.. the glasses are a bit heavy and I should have used a smaller board size to save space... wish there was a crop option to cut it down a bit!

The light fixture blew up outta nowhere! lol I like the lighting and the facial expression..
cmb (Nov 26, 2006)
see- I knew it didnt look like a flying saucer!
DarkCloak (Nov 26, 2006)
Nice lighting effects on her face. And yes, I thought it was a light fixture at first too. :P A star lit sky would have helped show that it's a ufo :)
