Looking past the commentary, this is a pretty good portrait. Good colors, nice distortion, I like it a lot more than the original, this interpretation actually has character and style.
I guess I need to watch the news more, or start reading the newspaper.....cause I never heard of this man before.....I don't have a clue as to who is the "CEO" of "GM"...."LOL"!! You have to admit though.....he does resemble Harry Belafonte. I guess I live in "my own little world".....I need to get out more. Great draw though. :)
firecracker: I've got to ask. How do you spend your time? I mean, sometimes I wouldn't mind be so completely oblivious to the rest of the world. I'm not trying to insult, I'm just curious.
I just lead a very sheltered life I guess......I don't go out and about much anymore. I spend a lot of time on this computer, and I like drawing pictures. I love listening to music.....I have lots of cool cd's and record albums. I used to love reading books, but my eyes are getting kinda blurry....and if I read too long, my eyes start burning. If I spend too much time on the computer, my eyes start to burn. I used to go to the website pogo.com, and play some of the games there.....but since I started online drawing.....I kinda forgot about pogo.com. I used to watch tv more often than I do nowadays.....I just sorta lost interest I guess. I never really did enjoy reading the newspaper much....except for the comic strips..."lol". My husband passed away in the year 2000.....and e ver since he's been gone....my life just isn't the same. I still miss him. Now I live in a small house with 3 big dogs and my sister. My sister works.....and I stay home. I do all the yardwork around the house, and keep busy doing things like that. My german shepherd is my best "buddy".....I have lots of fun playing ball with him. I guess that there is so much stuff going on in the world that is depressing.....I just become oblivious to most of what's going on around me. There's nothing I can do about it anyway.....I'm just one person, and it's gonna take more powerful people than me to change what's going on in our country, and the world. Sooooo.....I just sorta live one day at a time......I don't get involved in things. When I go to bed at nite, I always say a prayer....and if I happen to live thru the nite, and wake up the next day.....I just do the same stuff all over again. Sounds pretty boring huh. "LOL"! My only daughter lives in Florida, and I live in Pennsylvania......so I never get to see her. We talk on the phone though. I hope that answers your question "axil"......I don't know how to be any other way, than what I am. I'm not really happy with the way my life has become.....but I've gotten accustomed to living this way....so that's the way it is.... "LOL". :)
Sounds like a very peaceful life..I'm very sorry to hear about your husband...And it must be very hard not to see oyur daughter..I know I would not even have a life worth living if not for my kids...and I think sometimes it's better not to know what is going on in the world...but you are a wonderful artist and a very sweet person and i hope that over time thing s will get better for you and work out in such a way that you will get everything you ever wanted..life can be so harsh sometimes..it just doesn't seem fair...I never like to go into details but you and I have a lot in common..anyways..keep them Bootylicious piraters a comin' my way..and take care...
