DeadlyBlondeArcher (Oct 11, 2004)
A whiskey bottle comforts me
And tells me not to cry
While a full moon says a prayer for me
I try to close my eyes

But the night's there to remind me
Of the guns and the early graves
The ghosts appear as I fall asleep
To sing an outlaw's serenade

Oh... the desert's been a friend to me
It covers me by night
And a snakebite's not my enemy
But it taught me how to fight

Dyin' ain't much of a livin'
When you're livin' on the run
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young
Is it too late to ask for forgiveness
For the things that I have done ?
Dyin' ain't much of a livin' for the young

first I tried to get him to be still while I painted him, but that didn't go over too well, so I decided to use a photo reference, yeah.

awesome work. love the blurred bg. makes him really stand out. kinda like you *just* saw him.

i got a snakebite once. was fun times. only it was a boa so i didnt die or anything. she was still a bitch to get off my arm though.

Great job DBA! This looks exactly like a photograph out of one of those inforative books that talks all about reptiles. I like it : ]
Anna (Oct 15, 2004)
Now this rocks! :) The skin on that snake is just amazing! Magnificent job on it, Cindy!!

Wow, that looks like it's about to jump off the fkn page! I'm so impressed down to my little toes. It's beautiful. ^_^

Hmmm... I dont think we need to comment on DBAs pictures anymore. They are all just too good :P
DeadlyBlondeArcher (Oct 15, 2004)
But then if you didn't I would be very, very sad and I wouldn't be as inspired anymore.
Aubrey (Oct 15, 2004)
That's great Cindy, the details in the snake are just terrific
Xodiak (Oct 15, 2004)
I think there should be a shrine built for DeadlyBlondeArcher. >:)

DeadlyBlondeArcher (Oct 15, 2004)
Can it have really tall pillars in the front, lots of candles inside, and some totally buff, hot guys with fanning palm leaves whose sole purpose is to please me??? (thanks Xod :)... thanks all)
davincipoppalag (Oct 15, 2004)
I will sit out front sellin the tickets.. (but you gotta move the dang snake first)
DeadlyBlondeArcher (Oct 16, 2004)
Okay, Dave... done. He's under your pillow. lol
davincipoppalag (Oct 16, 2004)
Wheee. tell him to leave my teeth alone under there...
monk (Oct 17, 2004)
not that it needs any more comments, but this is terrific. At first I had a hard time figuring out what was going on with the head. You know how it is right, you sit there staring at a picture for a while and can't pick out whats what and then you finally see it and say to yourself "what the hells wrong with me? Am I an idiot? Why couldn't I see that?"...................Any way, it's good,.......really really good.
DeadlyBlondeArcher (Oct 17, 2004)
you know what, monk? when I was looking at the reference photograph sometimes I had a hard time seeing "what was going on with the head... especially where it connects, and I think it's because the markings on the snake are a type of "camouflage"... against himself and to the backdrop of his environment... I don't know... sometimes I just *saw spots*, so I know exactly what you meant.
sincity (Oct 17, 2004)
THis is awesome. Love it!
safescene (Oct 24, 2004)
I admire you immensely for this one, DBA ;) As we would say here in NorCal: hella cool, dude.
Aubrey (Oct 24, 2004)
This picture is still just too cool.
