Flubbles and jekyll (Aug 24, 2010)
I need to get this out of my gallery, must finish it, got no room. Hopefully me and Jekyll can have a stab at it some time. Hope he doesn't mind me setting it to unfinished, because in my mind it's a step closer to getting it finished.

i'd say he's using the light bulb to see the level of the liquid in the barrels.

it reminds me of someone as well, but i can't put my finger on it. anyways, great stuff as usual.
Flubbles (Mar 4, 2012)
It reminds me a bit of Alicia from the Good Wife, but I'm not sure if thats who it reminded me.
Moosh (Mar 4, 2012)
Yeah, that makes sense what with the dark hair and all. Reminds me of Karen Allen for some odd reason.
Flubbles (Mar 4, 2012)
Aye, I think it's more to do with the facial expression. Karen Allen has a similar facial expression too.

This work speaks to something inside of me. There is something craving/possessed, almost sexual with the way the mouth is parted and the hand clawing against the side of the face. I really like the way the hand is done!
Teapot (Oct 20, 2011)
It is a powerful piece. I find it disturbing but I'm still not sure why. I agree that there seems to be something sexual about it. I think it's the blindfold and the title that give me that impression. I go back and forth between seeing the hand and the 'red' (blood? raspberry jelly?) as sensual/savoring to seeing it as clawing/fear/insanity. Then I think...is it about a person who is refusing to see something base (violence? greed?) or unwanted in their own nature? Regardless, it's great to be able to produce a piece that draws the viewer in and invites them to give the image an interpretation. Congrats.
Alter.Native (Oct 20, 2011)
Cuuute!
Imperfect (Nov 18, 2011)
A late thanks, but better now than never. Thanks for giving my drawing so much thought, BlackBird and Teapot. It's great to hear your interpretations. I had something in mind, but I like leaving it open to the viewer. :)

this is cool with the blue light in the eyes... I really like that red on the forehead too... another great one - the colors you choose remind me of old Renaissance paintings which I really really like... like this one: http://www.art.com/asp/View_HighZoomResPop.asp?apn=12969680&imgloc=21-2129-Z00DEW4O.jpg&imgwidth=671&imgheight=894

I like her strong facial expression, how you used bold, defined colors to put the lit part of her face into focus. Amazing portrait, really

cool depth you got into this one
Black_Bird (Nov 8, 2011)
Disturbing and very cool.
Teapot (Nov 10, 2011)
So disturbing, eh? First thing that came to my mind was 'cremation of a murdered girl'. I've been watching too many cop dramas.
itchymonkey (Nov 13, 2011)
too many cop dramas, there is. you'll be profiling me.
my pleasure, to disturb.

Just looking through your gallery and came across this. I'd forgotten that you drew it. I fell in love with the same photo! Pretty funny. I left out the berries. Seeing your version again...I really like how you made it your own style.

Mr_L_V (Aug 15, 2011)
Wow I can't imagine how you did it :O
But the texture and hidden colors in it is all well worked out :D
itchymonkey (Aug 21, 2011)

pressure sensitive pen to start with then duplicate your layer, set ' layer blend mode' to 'multiply', move it about,repeat this,try 'difference' mode, shake it all about and bob may be some how related to you, if your lucky
