i wish i could have a day like this ^__^;

EDIT: my aunt saw this when it was partially colored, and had a burst of inspiration. heres the poem she wrote:

in focus

some people can't see what we see
some will never have the lens to look past skin and see the prettiness of your smile or how it
feels right now when we're holding close and tight.
they'll never understand that love is colorblind and God is love, because their camera still
holds the kind of film that's either in black or white.
but let us remain in focus, ok? and always communicate...meaning staying hazy free.
let life's photos of our love be evidence...us always positioned together...snap..
picture perfect baby that's you and me.

i'm glad my art could inspire hers ^__^

Poll: 2draw, 2draw, What do you like?

marcello (Mar 20, 2004)

As most of you are completely unaware, I am currently in the process of working on a new project, and although I would rather push my personal views on it, I figured some input to ignore would be useful. So, the question, most simply, would be: Which of the drawing applet(s) on 2draw you like best and why? In particular, I am talking about the interfaces of Lascaux Sketch, Shi-painter Simple, Shi-painter Advanced, PaintBBS, and OekakiBBS. Each one has a fairly unique interface and apparen...

davincipoppalag (Mar 20, 2004)

you found the Cuban mechanic! Since I'm not drooling over the guy..I can see the pic.. its good..but..a tad fuzzy.. and its kinda confusing where the girl and the guy are sort of comingled at the shoulder area..(or maybe I should just clean my glasses?)

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Mar 21, 2004)

lol... no, not Cuban, but comingled sounds good....

Satan Loving Spyware Makers

DinoFlorist (Mar 19, 2004)

Spyware is the devil; yet the devil must punish horrible spyware makers! Even Dante could not concieve the afflictions that await the inhabitants of the 55th inner circle of hell inside the devil's bowels.

Just thinking about those horrid toolbars and desktop icons makes me so angry.

heh, if you're plagued with spyware, a good part of it is your own fault. I haven't gotten any, myself...
just don't use internet explorer (loads of exploits that automatically install that crap), only download programs from reliable places, and um...common sense? :)
cool pic though, reminds me of freebsd.

two-na (Mar 20, 2004)

Very good use of textures, like the idea and the cartoonish feel

marcello: lol, freebsd! i was thinking it looked familiar then I read your comment : )

DinoFlorist (edited Mar 20, 2004)

I don't download really, ever! I use spybot like every other day. I do use internet explorer, but don't a lot of people? I wonder if everyone that uses it has a lot. Anyways, that doesn't change the fact that if I saw a spyware guy on the street I would kick him in the nads.

The road home from Santa Fe

marcello (Mar 19, 2004)

Was riding back today and there was this awesome sunset that I completely failed to capture. And damn the canvas still wasn't wide enough... plus I completely forgot the colors and composition by the time I got on lascaux.

I don't even know how many times I've come back over and over again to look at this since coming to 2Draw. I've been to Santa Fe a few times, and every time I just loooved this scene. It's absolutely beautiful. You really captured the beauty and luminosity of it very well. This is one of my favorites, since I've actually seen this myself.

marcello (Nov 16, 2004)

Actually, this is mainly albuquerque...

staci (Nov 16, 2004)

heh

Anna (Nov 16, 2004)

I stand corrected. Now thinking, I believe the times we go through NM, we passed through there at the crack of dawn. Still equally as beautiful.

Heartfelt

Axil62 (Mar 19, 2004)

This is a guy with long hair and he is sitting down and he is sad and he has blue pants with stripes and he has white shoes and he is not wearing socks and the floor is tile and he is holding a flower and he is looking at the flower and he is wearing a long black jacket and one of his shoe laces is in a loop and he hasn't shaved and the wall is also tiled.

Axil62 (edited Mar 19, 2004)

Why? I dunno, maybe because he's a pussy and he needs to get his ass beat.

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Mar 19, 2004)

I knew you were in a smart-assy mood today. lol So what are you waiting for?

Kasha (Mar 19, 2004)

I bet he's sad because he has no socks....or maybe he still hasn't figured out how to tie his shoe after he hit his head on the tile floor and thus got a concusion and his wife left him. Nice pic Axil.

Chillin'

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Mar 18, 2004)

I used a reference pic for this, of course I don't have these in my backyard. Umm, as a matter of fact, I jacked this magazine from the lobby of a place in Fort Worth the other day because I saw this picture and I couldn't bear to leave him. :) The photograph is so cute that it made me smile everytime I glanced at it while drawing this, and if I captured even half of his cuteness, you should smile, too.

I like it I like it I like it! It looks like my first Barbie Doll! lol (only barbie got me into alot of trouble, see, because she thought Ken was gay, and she wanted to shack up with GI Joe, see, so I let her. But Joe was always tangled up in that parachute in the yard, and Ken was always comin around... I think he had the hots for G.I. Joe, too, anyway, I bought them the camper (not the Barbie Car) so that she and Joe could get away... and I'll have to tell ya the rest of it.. there's the part where she always loses one pink shoe... and.. yeah, have to finish later. lolol

This is a great picture!

davincipoppalag (Mar 19, 2004)

this is your fault DBA..but here goes.. Little girl does great in school, so her mom says "ok I will take you to the toy store and you can get whatever you want" Little girl says immediately" I want a Barbie and a G.I.Joe!"
Mom says.."but honey, Barbie comes with Ken!"..Little girl says.."No mom.. she fakes it with Ken"...... arrrgggh

laurael (Mar 19, 2004)

You guys are hilarious! That's funny, you mentioning Barbie. When I finished this, it reminded me of her, but it wasn't intentional at all...

Kasha (Mar 19, 2004)

lol, yes they are funny, that aside, this pic is so cute. Really does look like Barbie. :)
