Very beautiful. The colours are so lovely and her expression is compelling--I get a sense of worry or indecision. The only thing I might suggest working on is the dark shadow above her eyelid--if you could soften the edge of that to give the impression of a smoother increase in the roundness of the bone structure just below the eyebrow.

I love the contrast, deep shadows like that add so much weight to an image.

TaCO (Oct 25, 2005)

I think the eye made the pic, even though It's a crapy eye.

Nice! You got his style down really good. Slash is a badass guitar player. Can never get enough of the ol G N R. Really kickass drawing you did Laurel. ( If your still around )

I don't like winter, It's evil.

laurael (edited Oct 22, 2005)

I like winter.
Snowball fights, building forts and igloos and snowmen, sledding, icicles, snow falling on your upturned face, catching snowflakes on your tongue, white covering everything, sliding on the ice and falling on your butt...yeah.
Nice pic...great style.

Sweetbriar (Oct 23, 2005)

Great concept. It's very nice and smooth :)

Renuar (Oct 27, 2005)

i like the drawing style you used for this, good work.

Saturation

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Oct 21, 2005)

I took a photo of my eye and put it in a paint program, over-did the color saturation, and this is what I got. I thought it was cool looking. I promise I was not wearing blue eyeshadow.

thank you guys :) they're really creepy looking. But they're so so cute! And if you want to work at a zoo, just takes a little bit of patience, schooling and/or previous experience! Most zoological programs in college are only a year or so long....*wonders why she didn't just do that instead of going through 7 years of college!* :D

featherstone (Oct 20, 2005)

if I ever go back to school, that's what it'll be for :)

davincipoppalag (Oct 20, 2005)

What a cool looking animal..interesting job you have. Nicely drawn picture, also!

laurael (Jan 1, 2006)

Cute little thing. I've wanted to be a zoologist for the longest time...but it never happened. Had to go straight to work after graduation...:(
