Wow. I know I've said this before, but I TRULY wish this were a giant oil painting I could hang in my living room. It's warm and soft and soooo pretty.
(I love the little bluish touches in the "cold spots" of the painting)

Don't worry, It will return.

This is quite a good drawing! I love the sky.

Sweetcell (Feb 2, 2008)

Oh boy does that sound familiar. I was in an art funk for a month. Deino's right, it'll come back.

Very realistic, nice work.

Miss_DJ (Jan 12, 2008)

love the skin tones, textures and grass sprigs. Really nicely drawn.

Thanks everybody, I'm pretty happy with the outcome. Oddly enough, the baby came out easier than the zink bath she is sitting it. It still looks like a gray blob. Exept for the handles they look similar to the photo. :S

MelissaMissy (Jan 29, 2008)

OHHHH! This is so adorable! Draw more babies just so I can aww at them!

He looks like a screaming maniac. I love it!!

I did a maniac screaming not long ago...if you care to look it is: http://studio.floatingginkgo.com/jam/pictures/OPJ_72.png (actually I used jimwarren.com as my reference to mine though. I am not near as original as you are with your art. Maybe someday I can be. :-(

This is a made up character, I can't beleive it took only 34 minutes because I've made worse ones that took longer :p

No, I meant mice, as the plural of mouse instead of mouses.

MelissaMissy (edited Apr 9, 2008)

Oh yeah

penpen (Jan 18, 2008)

you said in the description "I wish I had a tablet though, mouses are hard!" ... So instead of saying "mouses" you would say "mice"
however, i do agree with you. a tablet makes things a lot easier (for those of us who can't draw with a mouse) *points to myself*
:P

MelissaMissy (Jan 26, 2008)

Hehe, yeah.

Congratulations. Good entries this week, must've been hard picking a winner this time.

elly (Jan 20, 2008)

woooo hoooo contest #69! Can't think of a better number! LOL Thanks for the vote! Judging was quick. Good thing I stuck this out yesterday!
I can't help but wonder what that bull was thinking while he was looking at this strange creature with a big black box in their face! =) I LOVE reflections and light!! This was fun!

Miss_DJ (Jan 21, 2008)

cool Elly ! glad you won! wonderful!

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Jan 21, 2008)

Has to be better than seeing the reflection of your own face there, and having hot bullsnot blown all over it - being frozen with fear and calculating how fast you can tear ass to the fence. hah

This is wonderful in every way.
