This is really beautiful, just as it is. I can only imagine it finished ...how amazing this will be. Love her expression, the canvas size and the curves in it.

Sorry, didn't mean to bump this to the top, just wanted to complete it. I kept thinking about that poem "Ozymandius" while I was playing with the watercolour brush...trying to make it look like her body was made of sand, blowing away in the wind.

I met a traveler from an antique land
Who said: Two vast and trunkless legs of stone
Stand in the desert. Near them, on the sand,
Half sunk, a shattered visage lies, whose frown,
And wrinkled lip, and sneer of cold command,
Tell that its sculptor well those passions read
Which yet survive, stamped on these lifeless things,
The hand that mocked them, and the heart that fed;
And on the pedestal these words appear:
“My name is Ozymandias, king of kings:
Look upon my works, ye Mighty, and despair!”
Nothing beside remains. Round the decay
Of that colossal wreck, boundless and bare
The lone and level sands stretch far away.
by Percy Bysshe Shelley

I've got a book of poems from when I was a kid and this is one of the poems.

Great big woman with meat shakin' on her bones
Oh! Oh! My soul, lordy momma
Big big woman with meat shakin' on her bones
Every time she shimmies
The skinny women all go home!

I ain't gonna marry
I ain't gonna settle down
I'm gonna stay right here and
Run these men around.

I couldn't find the version of this song that I first heard...but these old guys are fantastic!

damn. I've been trying to remember how I did that background texture! I think it had to do with using the space and scatter control sliders and a hard, square brush with the smudge tool. Maybe. *rolls eyes* The feathers were pretty easy and fast. It's the skin that takes me for friggin' EVER.

Futon frolic.
I tried refining the hatch shading a bit. Probably won't do much more with this. It was an exercise in trying to remember how to draw after not doing anything for a long time. I'm sure I shouldn't try a complicated pose without a ref--lotsa stuff off. Feels weird when you can't even manage to get your tablet angled correctly to draw diagonal lines. My drawing hand is retarded. At least I'm hoping it's my hand and not my brain. :-O

was 55 when, astride her horse, she watched the British Navy defeat the Spanish Armada. Cate Blanchett was in her 30's when she did the movie. This is really frustrating because every couple of minutes the drawing tools just stop working for about 10 seconds. I don't know if it's my computer or what but it sure makes drawing a pain in the butt. The real QE1 was swarthy with reddish hair and brown eyes, a hooked nose and thin lips.
Here's a link to the ref photo.

firecracker (May 24, 2010)
Maybe this could be related to the volcanic ash that is hovering over Iceland????? Cool draw!! :)
itchymonkey (May 25, 2010)

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.

Yes, I thought volcano, too. I lived in Portland when Mt. Saint Helen's blew so I remember what it looks like from that time. I don't have a TV so haven't seen any images of the Icelandic eruption. Glassy-skied is right...all that silica floating around. It killed my '67 Volkswagen. You would find it in everything for months and months afterward. Nasty stuff but interesting to look at.
Suntan (May 20, 2010)
Interesting work you do, itchy. I can see volcano, but my first thought was raw wool. Great work. :)

itchymonkey (May 20, 2010)
or maybe 'TheShadow' from Inkheart. though it was blacker.. silica not too good for jet engines either... i imagine wool has silica content.....thnx l,d,t,s i'll have to do a proper referenced one now :)
firecracker (May 20, 2010)
This is really cool.....I have to agree with suntan.....it makes me think of raw wool also.....:)

How to Paint like Shi painter
kupocoffee (May 8, 2010)
Hey Everybody, I'm wondering if anyone can help me. I need help with Adobe Photoshop and Corel painter 11. Im trying to figure out how to achieve smooth painting like the shi painter application. I'm in love with the Shi Painter Watercolor tool but it seems that I can not achieve this smooth paint in photoshop. Any Suggestions? Thank you. PS: I hope you can understand the wording of this question, I'm not so good expressing myself in words.

Sorry firecracker, but I can't really see robert redford at all in this, I do see guy pearce though.
Flubbles (Apr 14, 2010)
I suggest she's puts on her bifocals next time.
firecracker (Apr 14, 2010)
I put my "readers" glasses on, and I still say he looks more like Redford than Pearce. For one thing....Pearce has dark hair.......Redford has the sandy blonde looking hair like the dude in the draw....:P
