Very beautiful. I think I know the difference between me and many of the other painters here, now.For example, this is very smooth,finished,and slick.It' very professional. Good job. I do not tend to like going all the way to smooth,finished,and photo-like. I like the paint(figuratively) to look and feel like paint.I even like it similar to paint, messy and gooey. And there seems to be a tendency here, to like everything very smooth,slick,and finished. Guess I am out of the groove. I just like allowing for different styles,and different veiwpoints of what painting and drawing is.

Actually, Dot, this is quite impressionistic compared to the photograph, not an attempt at photo-realism at all.

What is the best monitor setting?

Opium (Feb 23, 2006)

Alright, I have my monitor callibrated to be bright, but is it better to draw with a darker monitor or brighter? I downloaded the WiziWYG XP that marcello told someone to use to callibrate their screen, and it says that standard graphic art is supposed to be dark. Which should I do?

Simply lovely to look at. Clean, elegant, sensual. The choice of monotone allows you to effortlessly concentrate on the subject without having to subconciously process too much visual information. The detail in the hair sets it all off. Full range of light to dark executed well, would like to have seen a couple more of the darker tones in places.... no, on second thougt, that might take away from it. Really very nice.

That was a great edit, Rich. The coloration really warmed this up beautifully. Nice to see you drawing

When the day is long and the night, the night is yours alone,
when you're sure you've had enough of this life, well hang on.
Don't let yourself go, everybody cries and everybody hurts sometimes.

Sometimes everything is wrong. Now it's time to sing along.
When your day is night alone, (hold on, hold on)
if you feel like letting go, (hold on)
when you think you've had too much of this life, well hang on.

Everybody hurts. Take comfort in your friends.
Everybody hurts. Don't throw your hand. Oh, no. Don't throw your hand.
If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

If you're on your own in this life, the days and nights are long,
when you think you've had too much of this life to hang on.

Well, everybody hurts sometimes,
everybody cries. And everybody hurts sometimes.
And everybody hurts sometimes. So, hold on, hold on.
Hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on. Hold on, hold on.

Aubrey (Sep 16, 2004)

I dunno their names, but they're cute for sure. It's been rough here at home for awhile.. I'm sorry it's taken so long ta get em up here D, but just ta show you how it's comin along.. the lil girly will pop up in a day or two :) I hope you enjoy it as much as I'm enjoying drawing them. The only thing better than super special kids is knowing they have super special parents taking care of them :) Your friendship is somethin I'll always remember, and never take for granted.
