reallyinteresting- expressive!

Congratulations Mooki, "Quizical" is awarded first place for Contest Week 58: Opposite Hand Drawing. I love the stylistic approach to this piece. The more I look at this the more I'm reminded of the style of Mucha and Muntz, with the feel of oils brushed on thickly and loosely on the canvas. That it was done with the left hand makes it even more remarkable. It seems almost a glimpse of a much larger canvas and makes you want to know what the rest of piece looks like. I feel like I stumbled in on her private thought's. If this were on a wall my attention would be focused on it. Wonderfully done Brooki.

I wanted to get the artists here to expand their talents beyond what they can do by having them go opposite to what they're comfortable with. This was a good exercise in control and format and allowed people to explore untapped areas. For these two weeks right and left merged and produced great results. I wasn't dissapointed. Though I know many of the artists here temporarily suffered, :) I'm glad they put so much effort into this, and I know from reading the comments that lessons were learned (and hands were placed in bowls of ice water) The truly hard part has been on my end. This one was a toughie to judge.

oh my god...

artists really do suffer for their work.

i geuss it pays off huh?
:D

THANK YOU!

Congratulations Mooks@@@
