Actually, I love Math, and his brother Logic. They are good friends of mine.

Once, my little brother left an extra-credit math puzzle in my car. It showed a large square made of smaller squares, each of which was a different size. It gave you only the size of the square in the middle and asked if it was possible to get the size of the whole thing (the proportions were intentionally distorted a little so that you couldn't use a ruler). I showed it to a friend who had already graduated and was teaching high school math, and he said it wasn't possible. But I persisted that it was, and figured it out a few weeks later.

I'm flattered that this reminds anyone of Icat's work. It was just a doodle before I went to bed. Maybe soon I'll do a "for real" sky.

whatchoo talkin bout willis?
this is a very 'for real' sky...
the tree has great form and detail; in my opinion it couldnt get any better, even if you spent 3 hours on it
its very painterly and quickies are the best sometimes

I love this!

I love this. I still like to lie lay on my back (whatever) in the grass or on the beach or wherever and look at the clouds. My daughter and I think this looks like you are in the mountains and looking up at the clouds. I have no idea where Dino got math out of that, but I hate math. Strange thing is I always like ppl who are good at it, though. Wonderful picture.

Yeah! Do some water demons, DMV. I wish I could draw demons or those other characters like you do, DMV.

The Cat's in the Kettle at the Peking Moon

emmamommalag (Jul 11, 2004)

"Did you ever think, when you eat Chinese
It ain�t pork or chicken but a fat siamese?
Yet the food tastes great, so you don�t complain.
But that�s not chicken in your chicken chow mein.
Seems to me I ordered sweet-and-sour pork
But Garfield�s on my fork.
He�s purrin� here on my fork... there's a hairball on my fork..."

That expression is fantastic! This is also very funny. :]

emmamommalag (Jul 13, 2004)

I love chinese food but always wonder how many cats I've eaten. lol

thug (Jul 15, 2004)

A few years ago a local restaurant actually got caught cooking stray cats. Spooky. burp meow

emmamommalag (Jul 18, 2004)

I know of a restaurant where that happened, too, thug. I live in a very small town.. the stray cat population is much larger than the human one. A chinese take-out opened here not long ago so I'm waiting to see if that changes. lol

Jasmine

JackSprat (Jul 14, 2004)

Okay. this is my first real attempt at a portrait with no reference materials.('member, the last started as an abstract)
I think she looks like a Jasmine...hence the title, though I 'spect I'll prolly have to look at something to get more detail in it. Once again, I have to thank Marcello for this site. I'm REALLY liking the style that I've been using so far, and I owe it all to him...lol..and some friends for bugging me to come here, thereby inspiring my interest and creativity again.

Well, I suppose if I could get back into it, I could finish it, instead of leaving it as a rough...then it might belong.

Give the man some space method and let's see where Jack takes this!

Welcome to Elfland.
Well, its the direction that I was headed, but not quite as fine as I'd like, I'll hafta settle for a Naive style for this one, until I learn more to be more effective with each layer.
My inspiration for this one came from a series of books entitled Bordertown, Borderland, etc. Great read about a place where kids run away to that exists only on the edge of Faerie.

emmamommalag (Jul 18, 2004)

Yay, you got more space. Love those little glasses. This turned out great, Jack.. way better than lots I've seen on this board. I like your style.
