This turned out very pretty. You do still lifes well. Maybe a few more shadows on the vase to have it look more substantial, as well as some shadows on the leaves and flowers that intersect or lay over the other. And as well highlights here and there, like the wrought iron. That's wrought iron right?

KuteDymples (Sep 7, 2006)

I wanted to go back and add some more shadows, but I had asked for space so many times on this one that I was about afraid to try it again. You are right about the shadows and highlights though, now looking back on this one. Yes, that is wrought iron (or simulated wrought iron) LOL Thanks for the great comments and suggestions. Airin and Shigatsu Sensei, your opinions mean so much to me as well...I love feedback on my drawings, even if they are not good. Yours please me well.

I think it's really interesting... I mean... It takes a moment to register that it's an eye...and then when you do you see the image in the eye... so you begin searching for what the image means... it's really an intriguing piece of art.

elly (Sep 2, 2006)

I agree with DBA, and I love your use of color and all the details. Very interesting!

This ones just been sitting. I "was" going to delete it but I decided to give it one more draw. I'm done. =)

davincipoppalag (Aug 31, 2006)

I like the ringy hair curls.. I think her eyes are a tad too far apart though?

elly (Sep 1, 2006)

yep, I agree. Too far apart, not enough definition in the corners either. Same with the nose. I can only get better though right? I'll keep practicing!

davincipoppalag (Sep 1, 2006)

Dass how it's done!@

Thank you, it was just a quick drawing before leaving today.

emmamommalag (Aug 29, 2006)

It's beautiful. I love the vibrant colors and the lighting.

Sweetcell (Aug 29, 2006)

My least favorite flower, maybe because we had so many growing wild in our garden. But you made them pretty.

elly (Aug 31, 2006)

Popping Poppies is right! This is a beautiful drawing kutie!!!! I love it!!

baby blue

elly (Aug 30, 2006)

I'm attempting a drawing of my son....only thing here that resembles him is the pose....such a cute pose. I'll keep working on it =)

Ok, this is not supposed to be on the contest page. Don't think I can switch it. Guess I'll send a memo to see if the guru's here can do it for me =)

Ooh look, I finished another one. I'm not really sure what I was thinking with the background...this was an experiment with color more than anything else I suppose. And done!

elly (Aug 26, 2006)

The background is cool! The whole drawing is cool!! LOVE the colors!! Great drawing!!!

poison_ivy (Aug 26, 2006)

White Castle

Airin (Aug 22, 2006)

And the individuals travelling there are, of course, called "Sliders"...wanted to try a mystical approach, will change the style of castle soon, i realize it may not be an "appropriate" design to some ppl at this time.

Could go on and on with this, it was a lot of fun =) ...credits to Miss DJ for some of the crystal technique.

Oh..DO! This is quite fun to look at...I love the green...more more..

elly (Aug 23, 2006)

What a really cool looking tree!!! It's one of the most original tree's I've ever seen!! I just want to sit under it and look up! Awesome!

Mr.Bubbles (Aug 23, 2006)

Green is good!

Sweetcell (Aug 23, 2006)

Now this you can lie under and enjoy the day. And also a nice place to read a book. It can almost be The Tree of Life.

Where are we?

elly (Aug 22, 2006)

Ok, this is my second shot at this drawing. I lost the first one...we tried getting it to work with no avail. Anyway, this one's going ok! Just playin' around.

Oh, simple, you take a left at the first blue nebula, pass Andromeda, veer a little starboard towards Cassiopeia (mind the comets there!) and there we are! Oh, here, umm, ask the hydrogen station attendant just over the mountains? Very nice picture, i'm just a little overtired..

Miss_DJ (Aug 22, 2006)

this is lovely elly!

elly (edited Aug 22, 2006)

Thank you everyone. This one was fun.....and I got to finish it!!! Hurrah!!! Now I'm at a loss as to what to draw and it's almost 12:30 am.....why am I even thinking about starting another one now???!!!!!! I never have enough time to sit here uninterrupted!!!!!!! .\ /.

Oh Airin, LOL

Sweetcell (Aug 22, 2006)

Watch out for that Black Hole when you come out of warp, oh and that Quantum Filament over by that Double Helix galaxy.

I love LOVE space stuff. Just ask anyone. The colors are intoxicating.
