This "pic" is awesome.....I want to learn how to draw like this....."lol"!! "Gillie".....How do you create such amazing artwork without using any texture tools.....your blending and shading and everything is just perfection.....I wonder if I can ever learn how to do that....Fantastic draw! :)

QTgillie (May 23, 2009)

thanks bunches elly, I am glad you commented also
Fire: your artistry and abilities are all there inside of you and on your pics, it is just behind all of that texture. I only use the texture tools if the subject calls for them, such as a pattern in a cloth. I have used them in an abstract. Or a repetition effect I may want to achieve, such as what you did in your wheat. Your work is so beautiful, it can stand on it's own with out all the "effects" added.
Thanks so much for you comments, they mean a lot.

Found you...

Where do you find your anime characters "Bubbles"? I'm not very familiar with this Anime and manga stuff, so I just now went to "wikipedia" to learn what it's all about. It seems pretty interesting. I thought it was just comic book cartoon type characters......but I see you can get videos, and watch anime on tv also. Where did you learn how to draw anime characters? Is that Manga Vampire Knight on a video, "Bubbles"?? It seems like more and more people are drawing anime characters lately.....it seems really popular.

maybug (May 24, 2009)

lolz, as much as I love anime/manga, I don't rly watch or read em anymore cos the more you watch, the quicker u get tired of them >.> Personally, i find it more fun to make my own :)

I'm into Yugioh. :P
but that's just me. She does look kinda like Yuuki. I don't read VK, but I have a friend that's obsessed. :P

Bubblicious (May 26, 2009)

Yeah, Firecracker, it's on Veoh.com. If ya go there, and search 'Vampire Knight' it should be there. You have to be careful though, because some of them aren't in English. You have to look for the ones that say 'English Subs' or 'Dubs'. You'd have to watch tons of Anime to know how to draw them. I'm partial to Naruto and Vampire Knight more than anything. You go to Onemanga.com, and they have all the manga's you could ever want to read. Of course, reading them takes forever, and is kind of confusing because it is read from right to left.

Well.....I'm finally posting this "pic" as "finished". I did more work on it, and I took "Cameo's" advice about changing the contents in the basket from flowers, to "wheat". I tried toning down the textures a little bit also. I hope it looks better now. I'm glad to be done with this draw...."lol"!!

firecracker (May 30, 2009)

Hi "MissDj".....Thank you very much for your nice comment......I really do appreciate it. I'm glad you like the "pic". I did kinda "over use" the texture tools though.....I'm trying to ease off on using so much texture from now on...."lol". Thanks again for commenting. :)

GreyGhost (Jun 24, 2009)

The textures and colors are amazing ... it looks lit from within.

Lovely muted color and the subject makes this look like an aged, classical painting! :)

shults (May 22, 2009)

subject makes this look like an aged, classical painting!

This painting is of a woman in a mosaic revealed on Israel. The women in the mosaic looks down, and parts of her were destroyed during the years. I tried to paint her the way she must have looked like.

elly (May 22, 2009)

Yes this is absolutely beautifully done! The monochromatic color really gives it that classic painting look! Very nice!!!!!!!

Suntan (May 22, 2009)

ahh, very interesting. thanks for letting me know that, shults..you succeeded with your goal. :)

firecracker (May 13, 2009)

I apologize for submitting this draw in the advanced boards......it should be moved to "intermediate". I needed to use a bigger board for this "pic". I'm finally posting this draw as "finished".....I don't know what else to do to it. If I try adding anything else....it will look too cluttered. :)

It's amazing how the change in the hair effected the whole "mood" of the drawing. The subject seemed to go from naive to seductive some how. Excellent work!

elly (May 19, 2009)

I love the hair change...like she got instant hair extensions =) Nice color on the dark bkgd!

shults (May 20, 2009)

Have fun Sierra! she looks pretty, and it does looks less like she's hiding it now. :]
reminds me of:

I like the way you, love to dance
I like the way you put your hands up in the air
I like the way you shake your hair
I like the way you like to touch
I like the way you stare so much,
but most of all ~yeah~ most of all..
I like the way you move!

i love this drawing superb!
