I have some advice for aspiring artists who plan on going to college: DON'T TAKE THREE STUDIO ART CLASSES IN ONE SEMESTER! every monday and wednesday i have nine hours of school in a row. No time for lunch. It's pure pain. And the work load is nuts. In fact, i should be doing a project right now, but i felt like doing this instead because the assignment is bullshit.

I had a couple cut & paste kinda classes to get electives in college..but mostly I just wing it.. I learn a lot from the folks here too.

Don't be quick to dump on university art classes... I've only taken 2 drawing classes, but each time I easily improved 10x.

No time for lunch? I guess you truly are a starving artist.... That dude has a cool hat. I like this cartoon style.

och.. thick fog standing at the base of a cold and intimitating castle fortress. or looking up at the wall of a plateau with some mysterious figure coming into view at the top. <3 i love it

Interesting. Very psychological. Though being blind would be bad, I'd hate being color blind alot more. To see the world, yet not see it's true splender...Very nicely done.

This looks great so far.

[edit]How about if you post the link of Zack's ref pic in your description? (u know, instead of going back to the 'How About This?' topic in the forum to check back on it--just a thought). Make it easier for people, ya know. [/edit]

Mmrwor. Great job, I love it. I've been thinking about doing something with that ref, too.
staci (Feb 28, 2005)
yeah totally great job...you got the mood down for sure. the only small thing i would hve added would be some bolder scratchy like marks on the pane of glass in front of the couple so they look more behind it. but woo for her hair
DeadlyBlondeArcher (Feb 28, 2005)
I'm working on this one now... I thought it was such a cool ref. Just dropped in to say I really like your interpretation of it.

This has the feel of a Maxfield Parrish painting, I don't know why, maybe her outfit? It has that sort of 20s feel. Very nice picture Rosemary
Rosemary (Feb 28, 2005)
thanks davinci..and yes i tried to capture a 20's feel :)
Axil62 (Feb 28, 2005)
I like it too. Clean fresh simple movement. Light and refreshing.
spiritdweller (Feb 28, 2005)
I say, let the dog go .... screw leash laws... and screw my neighbors who put a sign up....saying "no dogs allowed" some things have to be in God's hands.... cats are so much less fuss... but dogs are so much more loyal

oooo! can i name him? PWEASE?!?!?
spiritdweller (edited Feb 27, 2005)
so what is it Gigge? an elephant, right? I love them, hehe, took a ride on one with my son when he was smaller :D I love the animal shows that they talk about elephants on... how they remember their friends and family, if they're separated or whatever... they can get back together after years and the way they act seems proof that they never forgot each other. so sweet :)... they also mourn their lost ones much the way people do... hehe... we also call my mother elephant ears... she's an avid eavesdropper.
davincipoppalag (Feb 27, 2005)
This is beatiful Gigge. The emotional intelligence you can see in an elephant's eye is there. YOu did great.
Gigge (Feb 28, 2005)
Lori: Yup, an elephant.. The reference is called "elephant closeup" . ;) I like them. I think their whole social system is amazing, especially the elephant graveyards.

Anna: Using a reference is like following directions to me. No matter what my intentions are or how hard I try, I can't do it. So kind of you to see my flaw as an asset.

silver maiden: Be careful what you name her. She might take offense at being called a he. ;)

Thanks everyone for the kind words. :)

Orkdoop (Feb 28, 2005)

Gigge (Feb 28, 2005)
I like the way the body is so fleshy and the head is skull-like. Great contrast.

Awww. that's a cute piccy. Could be a story illustration. I like the contrast of the girl with the background.
spiritdweller (Feb 28, 2005)

2draw dreams
Shanghai (edited Feb 27, 2005)
Is there such a thing as spending too much time here? Last night I had this really weird dream about this site. I was browsing the forums, except that it wasn't with a computer. Everything was written on a sidewalk at my school and each slab of concrete that makes up the sidewalk was like a seperate forum post. The posts still had people's icons next to them though. Does this happen to other people too? Please tell me it does... >_> Anyone have any other art related dreams? Ever draw a pictur...
