Nice. You even included the oily shine on the bubbles.

davincipoppalag (Aug 17, 2007)

Now this is a fun pic. One of my friends on DA had just posted some pictures of the "Bubbleman" running around laying these kind of big bubbles in the air. It's fun. Love this.

So, been dating (to help me forget the last one), little did I know I would start dating Satan. This girl seemed okay until she tangled me into her web of corruption, now I have to find my way out. I'm sooo done with her, no love lost but she left some scars, she's like a bad hangover.

At least you realized it before it got too far along.. and can get it out this way..you will find the right one eventually Klox.

backmagicwoman (Aug 11, 2007)

just imagine how bad things would have been if she had waited to show this side of herself. But like lori said...she did inspire some awesome art work here. You'll have better luck next time i'm sure.

Sweetcell (Aug 11, 2007)

There are so many wrong people out there. But I'm sure your right is round the corner (I know, I know, cliche')
You do good works from your guts. :)

shell (Apr 7, 2010)

Dating Satan. Not so lucky in love are you?

Roytje (Aug 10, 2007)

I really like your expression. You drew the details on the right spots :)

Anna (Aug 10, 2007)

Wow I love the strokes and color.

shell (Apr 7, 2010)

This one is a blast sweetcell. clouds are great

JillJJ (Aug 17, 2007)

There are so many wonderful details in this pic. The water at the bottom is a great touch, adding to the reality and energy. Excellent work! Jillj

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Sep 24, 2007)

Came around to check your gallery since I've missed so much lately, and this one in particular caught my eye. I have often thought of doing one of some photos from NASA in Houston, since I'm from the area, been visiting recently, and really familiar with it, but haven't had time.

This one turned out great. My favorite thing is the area to the right. This is a good piece of art.

cool

My normal instinct is to offer comfort and support, but Klox, hon, you can't replace her. In some ways, even if you find someone else whom you adore, there will still be the corner of your heart that sees her in every woman, that remembers her and loves her. It's not something you can erase, not if you tried. You really -were- in love with her, but you can't spend the rest of your life waiting for her to come around, or even for her to come back... It's only hurting you, and I don't like to see friends - however new or however known - in pain.

I hope you can work through this. If you wanna talk or anything let me know. I know it's none of my business, but it's just kind of a, "hey, if you need anything let me know."

That's all. This is really pretty. *hugs* And I'm glad that you chose to draw her as you see her, not how the media would see her. It's a far more personal view.

Kloxboy (Aug 8, 2007)

clover pocky: I've made many of my experiences (good and bad) public though my art and ramblings. To some degree, I've made my experiences other peoples business, so I'm not about to shoot anyone down for giving advice, commenting, suggesting, etc. You're welcome to react as freely as you wish.

I think you've got a good hold on my situation, I agree with most of what you said. Everyone you love lingers with you long after they've gone and will probably remain with you for the rest of your life. When I say replace her, I meant I just want someone else to love, I don't intend to find a new version of her. My personal pain will always be expressed in my art, I know this now, it's just how I work. I would be an insane mess if I didn't have some type of art therapy to give me release. Thanks for your thoughts and support.

sweet_insanity (Aug 8, 2007)

i like the shapes here, not too detailed but i still emphisizes on
the good parts *cough-boobs-cough*
and i know how you feel...
i think it'd be easier for me to find someone to love if i would just shut up about my ex...
i blab alot :(

shell (Apr 7, 2010)

Ok it's been 3 years tell me you're much better now.

Yep, I can look pretty scary. It's a bit exaggerated and I used illustrative lighting.

Hey, just wanted to say I could bring every one you've done to the front again. Blows me away how talented you are. Was an hour well spent. ;)

This looks very impressionistic, and I had some of that stuff , too.

JillJJ (Aug 5, 2007)

Beautiful painting, beautiful work! Jilljj

Sweetcell (Aug 6, 2007)

Ooh, teabag. I found those to be gaudy after awhile, but I like them now. They certainly capture lots of light and colors. Great again PS.
