Another "colored pencil approach". I work in them in real life, this is great to work up ideas for works on paper!! |

An homage to the LayerGod. How did I ever live my life without you???
davincipoppalag (Apr 22, 2006)
Hahahhh. I told ya layers were great..
gerbear (Apr 22, 2006)
I bow to davinci who has given me only good advice since i got there!!! :))I cannot believe no one else has noticed this *L* I thought it was good for a laff even tho it is true!

Weekends are funny, sometimes no comments until it's over. The people who actually go out in the real world are busy weekends ..
JoeNobody (Apr 23, 2006)
ger, I love working in layers. It does make things much easier at times..... :-) |

Opium (Apr 22, 2006)
I agree with everyone else, I love the colors! What a cool technique!
Deino (Apr 23, 2006)
Very eyecatching, those bright colors look really good!
gerbear (Apr 24, 2006)
Thank you all so much. This was fun to do.
TammyF (Jun 14, 2006)

more experimenting
gerbear (edited Apr 22, 2006)
I do that crayon project with my kids (I am an art teacher, all ages). But we use india ink over the crayola, faster. They still love it tho now you can buy Scratch art sheets that already have it done and all you have to do is scratch..that takes the real fun out of it!!Vidlit huh? Never heard of that before!! I watched it but will watch with sound tomorrow, don't want to wake the hubby *L* Soooooo...you do these vidlits huh? Any money in it? I am quitting teaching in the fall to persue my own artwork but would love a "side" paid art project. You have prolly seen enuff of my stuff by now to know I can do realism or whatever style is called for ina project. I did 6 illustrations for an astrology website Ezine. They paid well too and I got to keep the original art. Very nice job on the vidlit!! I recognized your style. :) Pretty odd about Frankenstein and Flowers!! What is the chance someone was gonna mention Frankie on my flower draw? Zero? Less than zero? This happens to me every day...it is driving me insane *L* Tues. some lil kids in my art class mentioned the daughter of a woman I had not seen in 8 yrs at least. Less than 48 hours later I walk into a restaurant and there she is!! Geeeeeeez.
DeadlyBlondeArcher (Apr 24, 2006)
oh sorry... I didn't see this... I saw your comment in my forum post so I came back to reply... yes, I did 3 Vidlits... and they paid me to do them (I don't know what you'd consider "well", but I was happy with it because I loved doing it) They are short video clips advertising published books right before they hit the shelves. Here are the links to the other two: http://www.vidlit.com/trumpnation/http://www.vidlit.com/bullrider/ Doesn't EVERYONE in their right mind think of Frankenstein when they see a flower? hah :)
gerbear (Apr 24, 2006)
Hey DBa, I went and watched Bullrider, it was great! Trumpination is not working. I tried getting there from the website also. I had never heard of a vidlit before, what a good idea!

I love this flower, because to me, this picture is not so much about flowers as the way the world around throws beauty in our face. We must look for it though, and sometimes search, but it is there, in sudden surprising ways |

Somedays I rememberI apologise to those above who were commenting on my original drawing. Somehow, it changed and I had no idea it was going to. I draw from "inside" a lot. This is just where the skull led me.
tandrew971 (Apr 21, 2006)
well it really did change...i love the texture to this :)
gerbear (Sep 11, 2006)
It was not when I drew this, but today it is, so I am commenting on my own drawing. I flew out of New York City exactly 24 hours before the planes hit. I was in town for a wedding, my cousin and her fiance who worked in the Trade Center for Cantor Fitzgerald on one of the floors where no one survived. Had they not married that weekend and left for their honeymoon, he would be gone now. They came back and attended dozens of funerals for his co-workers. I guess this image was inside me jes waiting to appear and finally it did.
DeTroy (Sep 27, 2006)
this is how i believe art is. It happens to you. It emerges from you. It speaks to you, as well as to others. Sometimes you can plan it, sometimes it surprises even the artist |

experimenting with layers
gerbear (Apr 20, 2006)
Good point...but it would take so lil to make her really pretty..oh well...maybe I will move on. If it bothers me in a week still I'll go back and change it!
davincipoppalag (Apr 21, 2006)
She looks biblical..like one of the characters in one of those religious historical epics. She's pretty in her own way.
gerbear (Apr 21, 2006)
thanks davinci, maybe I will just let it alone. It is just difficult becuz my job is to find mistakes in drawings and now here I see all my own! :)
tandrew971 (Apr 21, 2006)
depends on whos looking at it if its a mistake or not. i like this one alot too |

Trying an anime draw from a ref I had on my HD. I think anime is cute but have never drawn it before.
FuzzyWuzzy (Mar 14, 2008)
*waves at Gerbear* tis me FUZZY! I have to show my daughter this one, awesome, she draws these too!
gerbear (Mar 14, 2008)
Hi Meno, keep at it, you will get the hang of it.Sweetcell, different strokes for different folks, we don't all draw online for the same reasons. I did some very successful professional pieces here yet I prefer Sketchfu. Just comparing oranges and apples Sweets. thanks Fuzzy, this is my best piece here and it took me forever!!!
QTgillie (May 20, 2008)
Geeez Gerry, I feel so bad I never came to see this. It is awesome. You are an amazing artist. |

Marsha is a character I developed over at YouDraw. I prolly have 15 or so Marsha drawings there in black & white. I was dying to see how she liked being in color. I think she likes it and will be back with some of her stories.
MARLONSEPPALA (Apr 15, 2006)
I like how I started drawing at youdraw first and now that I have stumbled onto this site. It reminds me of when I saw my first Color T.V. show. After years of watching Black and White. But I think I'll be Awhile before I get the Handle of the tools here.. Say Gerbear I wonder how many from youdraw use the same name here.
gerbear (Apr 16, 2006)
hahaha davinci! well (thinking of all of my friends and family I am going to show these draws to), perhaps that is where she and I first met too!Marlon, hi!! I jes started here recently. I am learning the programs, but only the basics so far. The YouDrawers I know here are: Sweetcell, tandrew971, gemmy, amagic, MissDj, zep and that is all I can remember for now! Try it out, it is fun.
MARLONSEPPALA (Mar 12, 2007)
Well it's been a while since I first came here and I'm wondering just what a blur Brush is to be used for. I have tried it seems to have be a nice tool. but i don't see the effect untill I submit the drawing. that seems strange.
Miss_DJ (Mar 13, 2007)
hi Marsha! Welcome to 2draw! (hi gerbear.. :o) |

Started with a magazine photo of rose and had so much fun playing with the program, blew off photo and just shaded. Beginning to get kind of Georgia O'Keefe-ish towards the top. I could retitle it "Realism Gone Awry?"
michaeleverett (Jun 15, 2006)
Hi Gerry no wonder you haven't been on YOUDRAW,look what your doing here.I'm so glad to see you and your work.I've missed having you around.
Meno (Mar 7, 2008)
It almost has a fragrance, it's so vivid! BEE-U-TEE-FUL :)
FuzzyWuzzy (Mar 14, 2008)
Wow, this is gorgeous!
gerbear (Mar 14, 2008)
Meno and Fuzzy thanks to you both! It has been a couple of years since I drew here, I must finish those cherries. |

I think this one, your anime or what ever you call those and your nude are my favorite.
As for Gerry she doesn't draw here anymore.
Hmmmm top dog. I think I'll make that into a T-shirt.
